Prescription Medications. (a) The Authority may publish and from time to time amend a list of medications whose usage by an employee must be reported by him/her to a designated Authority representative.
(b) In the event an employee intends to work while taking a prescribed medication not on the list referred to in the above paragraph, the employee must inform the prescribing physician of this intention and of the requirements of his/her job for the purpose of receiving the physician's advice as to whether taking the medication precludes the employee's safety and healthfully working at that job.
