The City will not discriminate against applicants for employment because of past abuse of drugs or alcohol where the applicant has since been rehabilitated. B. It is also the policy of the City to conduct drug/alcohol testing where it has a reasonable suspicion that an employee maybe under the influence of alcohol, illegal drugs (including lawful drugs that are used contrary to prescription) or other controlled substances. In addition, any employee who was involved in an accident which resulted in personal injury to any person requiring medical treatment or which caused damage to a piece of equipment or property shall be tested for alcohol, illegal drugs, or other controlled substances. Further, employees employed in safety sensitive positions are subject to periodic or random testing in accordance with D.O.T. regulations and results shall be measured based on D.O.T. standards, all in addition to any more restrictive testing and discipline provisions of this policy. Refusal to submit to testing when requested and/or tampering with a test sample, will result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment. 1 Section 2. Effective Date.
