The EAP professional will determine if enrollment in a rehabilitation program is necessary. c) An employee will be returned to work upon proof of enrollment in a rehabilitation program (if necessary) and/or negative test results on return to work drug and/or alcohol testing. d) Failure to present proof of participation in, or completion of the rehabilitation program, will result in immediate termination. e) An employee returning to work after a positive test will be subject to random testing as determined by the EAP professional. A second positive test result at any point in the process will result in termination. f) Levels for determining whether a drug test is positive or negative are the same as those set by the Department of Transportation for Commercial Drivers. The following initial cutoff levels are used to determine whether tests are negative: (1) Marijuana metabolites 100ng/ml (2) Cocaine metabolites 300ng/ml (3) Opiate metabolites* 300ng/ml (4) Phencyclidine 25ng/ml (5) Amphetamine 1,000ng/ml (6) Barbiturates 300ng/ml g) Confirmation tests will be conducted with a positive result on any test. In some cases, a confirmation test will be sent to an outside laboratory for confirmation of results.
