Safeguards and Testing Procedures Sample Clauses

Safeguards and Testing Procedures. Employees may be tested for the presence of drugs or alcohol by one or more of the following methods: 1. Urine sample for drugs - Employees will first be subject to EMIT screening. If a negative result is received, the sample will be considered free of drugs. If a positive result is received on the EMIT screening, a GCMS (gas, chromatography/mass spectrometry) test will be used for confirmation, and the employee will provide a second sample which will also be tested by GCMS for confirmation purposes. 2. Breathalyzer for alcohol - Testing for the presence of alcohol will be by breath analysis to determine the presence of alcohol.

The County will notify the employee and a designated Association representative of the positive test results. In the event a positive test is confirmed, the employee has the right to have the samples referred to in subsection (B)(1) re-tested, upon written request, within seventy-two (72) hours of his/her receipt of a final test result from the MRO.
