DISCLOSURE OF MEDICATIONS. Employees are responsible for consulting with their physicians and carefully reviewing medication warnings, including any warnings pertinent to the effects of use of a combination of medications. Employees who are using over-the-counter or prescribed medications under circumstances where the employee knows or should know that use of the medication will produce side effects that will affect their ability to safely perform all essential job duties must notify the Human Resources Director of the substance taken and its side effects before reporting for work. Medical verification of ability to safely perform job duties may be required before the employee is allowed to continue his/her job assignment. Employees are eligible to utilize sick leave benefits pending receipt of acceptable verification. Although the use of prescribed and over-the-counter medication as part of a medical treatment program is not grounds for disciplinary action, failure to fully disclose the use of substances which could reasonably impair the safe performance of essential job duties, illegally obtaining the substance or use which is inconsistent with prescriptions or labels will subject an employee to disciplinary action.
