Baseline drug test prior to assignment to an area where employees will be or may be exposed to hazardous substances or health hazards. B. At least once every twelve (12) months thereafter unless the employee’s attending physician believes a longer interval is appropriate, but not to exceed biannual exams. C. At termination or reassignment to an area where exposure will not occur if the employee has not had an examination within the preceding six (6) months. D. As soon as possible after notification that signs or symptoms indicating possible overexposure have developed or, an injury has occurred, or exposure above the permissible exposure limits or published exposure levels has occurred in an emergency situation, and E. Where the employee’s attending physician determines that examinations on a basis more frequently than that outlined above are medically necessary. The test will be done at Agency’s expense and on Agency time.
