Section H. Medical Examinations. Whenever the Employer requires an employee to submit to a medical examination, medical test, including X-rays or inoculations, by a licensed physician selected by the Employer, the Employer will pay the entire cost of such services not covered by the current health insurance programs, provided that the employee uses the services provided and approved by the Employer. Employees required to take a medical or a gynecological examination and who object to the examination by a state employed doctor may be examined by a doctor mutually approved. In the absence of mutual agreement the parties will select a physician from recommendations by a county or local medical society, by alternate striking if necessary. When the Employer requires tests for tuberculosis, the Employer shall pay for such tests. Such tests may be provided on site by the Employer. If not provided on site, the employee may be allowed up to one-half (½) hour for the administration of the test. The employee may also be allowed up to one-half (½) hour for the reading of the test if it is not read on site. If the test or reading is scheduled during the employee's non-working hours, the employee may utilize up to one-half (½) hour equivalent time off from a working shift for the administration of the test. The employee may also be allowed up to one-half (½) hour equivalent time off for the reading of the test if it is not read on site.
