In connection with the Trust, the Servicer shall cooperate fully with the Master Servicer and the Depositor to deliver to the Master Servicer and/or the Depositor (including its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information available to such party and reasonably necessary in the good faith determination of the Depositor or the Master Servicer to permit the Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Servicer reasonably believed by the Depositor or the Master Servicer to be necessary in order to effect such compliance.
Reasonable Suspicion a. Reasonable suspicion to test a Covered Employees for illegal drugs or alcohol will exist when specific, reliable objective facts and circumstances would create a good faith belief in a prudent person that the employee has used a drug or alcohol. Such circumstances include, but are not limited to, the employee’s behavior or appearance while on any SFMTA jobsite, while on SFMTA business or in SFMTA facilities, and recognized and accepted symptoms of intoxication or impairment caused by drugs or alcohol, that are not reasonably explained by other causes such as fatigue, lack of sleep, proper use of prescription drugs, or reaction to noxious fumes or smoke.
b. Any individual or employee can report an employee who may be under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Upon receiving a report of possible alcohol or illegal drugs on the job, two (2) trained employer representatives will verify and document the basis for the suspicion and request testing. The first employer representative shall verify and document the employee’s appearance and behavior based on the above-stated indicators and, if appropriate, recommend testing to the second employer representative. At work locations within the border of the City and County of San Francisco (including San Francisco International Airport), the second employer representative shall verify and document the appearance and behavior of the employee based on the above-stated indicators and has final authority to require the employee to be tested. At work locations outside the border of the City and County of San Francisco, the second employer representative shall confer with the first employer representative to verify the employee’s behavior based on the above-stated indicators, and the second employer representative has the final authority to require the employee to be tested. In the event only one trained employer representative is available onsite, the representative shall confer with any other trained employer representative within the City to verify the employee’s behavior. The second trained employer representative shall have the final authority to require the employee to be tested.
c. If the SFMTA requires an employee to be tested under reasonable suspicion, then the employee may ask for representation. Representation may include, but is not limited to, union representatives and shop stewards. If the employee requests representation, the SFMTA may allow a reasonable amount (a maximum of one hour) of time for the employee to obtain representation. Such request shall not delay the administration of the tests for more than one hour from the time the employee is notified that the employee will be tested.
d. Moreover, if the SFMTA has reasonable suspicion or suspect that a prescription medication may have interfered with or may have had a direct impact on an employee’s job performance, it may require that employee to be tested.
e. The department representative(s) shall be required to accurately document and file the incident and the employee shall be required to complete a consent form prior to any testing. If an employee refuses to Submit to testing, then the SFMTA shall treat the refusal as having tested positive and shall immediately take appropriate disciplinary action pursuant to the attached discipline matrix.
f. The SFMTA shall bear the costs for any required testing for alcohol and/or drugs under this section. Any counseling and rehabilitation services shall be on the employee’s time and at the employee’s cost, except that employees may use accrued paid time off to attend treatment and may utilize any resources covered by insurance. Employees shall have the right to use any accrued but unused leave balances while enrolled in any counseling or rehabilitation program. Any request by an employee to re-test a specimen shall be at the employee’s cost.
Reasonable Suspicion Testing All Employees Performing Safety-Sensitive Functions
A. Reasonable suspicion testing for alcohol or controlled substances may be directed by the Employer for any employee performing safety-sensitive functions when there is reason to suspect that alcohol or controlled substance use may be adversely affecting the employee’s job performance or that the employee may present a danger to the physical safety of the employee or another.
B. Specific objective grounds must be stated in writing that support the reasonable suspicion. Examples of specific objective grounds include but are not limited to:
1. Physical symptoms consistent with alcohol and/or controlled substance use;
2. Evidence or observation of alcohol or controlled substance use, possession, sale, or delivery; or
3. The occurrence of an accident(s) where a trained manager, supervisor or lead worker suspects alcohol or other controlled substance use may have been a factor.
