Contagious Disease. This Article shall operate in conjunction with Article 20, Section l(C), "Safety and Health", of this Agreement.

Due to privacy laws testing for the AIDS virus shall not be part of this Agreement. It shall be agreed by the parties to the following:

Where the Department of Correction, in conjunction with the Department of Public Health, has determined that a contagious disease outbreak has occurred at a Department Institution or facility through the existence of credible medical evidence, it shall immediately notify the Union Executive Board of such determination, and the Department shall implement an education and testing program at such site. All employees and inmates at the site must be tested for the contagious disease.
2. Such testing will be done by medical personnel from the Department of Correction and with medical personnel from the Department of Public Health except as provided in #4 below.
3. If the contagion is tuberculosis, the actual tuberculosis testing will be conducted by the medical personnel from the Department of Public Health with assistance provided from medical personnel from the Department of Correction. Nothing herein shall prevent an employee from insisting that he/she be tested by personnel from DPH. Each employee at each facility shall be tested in an administrative area (e.g. conference room) or other areas where inmates are not present. Such testing will be done during the employee's shift or tour of duty.
4. Employees may decline to be tested at their work sites; however, any such employee so declining must be tested by utilizing one of the following two alternatives:
a. the employee, on his/her own time, may be tested by his/her own physician.

b. the employee may, on his/her own time, be tested at any of the Department of Public Health clinics located within the Commonwealth.

The City recognizes that employees may be called upon to respond to incidents involving an imminent threat of injury or death to themselves or others where the carrying out of any action will risk exposure to an obvious blood borne pathogen hazard.

Contagious Disease. Any student having an infectious disease (measles, hepatitis, mononucleosis, etc.) must be certified as non-contagious by the UIC Health Service to be able to live in the residence halls. Since all students living in the residence halls share bathroom and dining facilities with other residents, a person cannot be contagious to other community members and remain in the halls. The student is responsible for finding other living arrangements until he/she is no longer contagious. Written proof from a physician is required and must be submitted to the Associate Director of Housing for Residence Life in the Central Housing Office in order to return to the halls. Gambling is not permitted in the residence halls. Behavior unbecoming of a UIC student includes, but is not limited to, uncivilized language such as excessive swearing (particularly when directed toward another person or office); conduct which is disorderly, lewd, or indecent; breach of peace; or otherwise reflects poorly upon the UIC community, is prohibited. Throwing or dropping any object or liquid out of a window, off a ledge, or from a roof area is strictly prohibited. Tampering with or removing screens is prohibited. A student may not violate confidentiality or other board policies or procedures as determined by the Campus Housing staff and the group while serving as a member of the Residence Hall Conduct Board.
