Common use of Employee-Requested Confirmation Testing Clause in Contracts

Employee-Requested Confirmation Testing. An employee who questions the results of a required drug test may request that an additional test be conducted at a different USDHHS-certified laboratory. The test must be conducted on the split sample that was provided at the same time as the original sample. The cost of the second test will be borne by the employee, unless the second test invalidates the first. The method of collecting, storing, and testing the split sample will follow Department of Transportation guidelines. The employee's request for a split sample test must be made to the Medical Review Officer (MRO) within seventy-two (72) hours of notice of the initial test result. Requests after seventy-two (72) hours will be accepted only if the delay was due to document able facts that were beyond the control of the employee.
