Other Testing. Individual Employers may require an employee to submit to a urine, blood or breathalyzer test to determine the presence of alcohol or drugs, at the Employer’s expense, in the following situations: (1) If a prime contractor, project owner or customer requires it; (2) If the employee drives or operates a Company-owned vehicle; or (3) If such testing is required by state, federal or local law, regulation or ordinance. Such other testing in the foregoing situations can include random, reasonable suspicion, post-accident, follow-up and/or return-to-duty testing; provided, however, that if such other testing is based on the fact that an employee drives or operates a Company-owned vehicle, random testing will not be used. When an Employer learns that such other testing will be required by a prime contractor, project owner or customer, the Employer will promptly notify the Union, but not sooner than the contract award. Employees asked to work on a job where such other testing is required by the prime contractor, project owner or customer will be so informed before the project starts. Employees required to submit to such other testing will be compensated for the time required to complete the testing. Failure to submit to a drug/alcohol test in any of the foregoing situations will be grounds for termination. Employees who believe they are not required to submit to a drug/alcohol test must still submit to the test and then file a grievance in accordance with this Agreement.
