Protocol AC Sample Clauses

Protocol AC. All replicas receive measurements and perform computation. Before sending setpoints to the actua- tors, the replicas agree on which replica sends the septoints for this label (which is equivalent to agreeing on which setpoint is sent), by using a consensus protocol. We choose the widely used Fast Paxos [13] protocol for consenus as it is optimized for low latency and guarantees consistency. This is an example of an active-replication-based agreement protocol that ensures consistency by agreement on the septoints, as opposed to agreement on the measurements, as done by Quarts.

The employee shall provide a signed release for disclosure of the testing results to the Employer. A representative for the bargaining unit shall have a right of access to the results upon request to the Employer, with the employee’s written consent.

If a drug screening test is positive, a confirmatory test shall be conducted utilizing the fluid from the primary sample. B. In the event that any confirmation drug test results are positive, the employee is entitled to have the split sample tested by another DHHS-certified lab in the manner prescribed above at the employee’s expense. The employee must request the split sample test within seventy-two (72) hours of being notified of a positive result. The results of this test, whether positive or negative, shall be determinative.

An employee who participates in a rehabilitation or detoxification program shall be allowed to use sick time and vacation leave for the period of the rehabilitation or detoxification program. If no such leave credits are available, the employee shall be placed on medical leave of absence without pay for the period of the rehabilitation or detoxification program.

Such employee may be subject to periodic retesting upon his/her return to his/her position for a period of one (1) year from the date of his/her return to work. Any employee in a rehabilitation or detoxification program in accordance with this Article will not lose any seniority or benefits, should it be necessary for the employee to be placed on medical leave of absence without pay, for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days. Section 33.9 If the employee refuses to undergo rehabilitation or detoxification, or if he/she tests positive during a retesting within one (1) year after his/her return to work from such a program, the employee shall be subject to disciplinary action, including removal from his/her position and termination of his/her employment.
