Split-sample Analysis. The Employee may request that a confirmation test on the specimen be conducted. That request must be made in writing within three business days after being notified of the positive test result. The analysis of the split sample shall be obtained from a separate, unrelated certified laboratory chosen by the Employee and shall be at the Employee’s expense. If the split sample analysis fails to re-confirm the presence of the prohibited substance found in the original sample then both tests shall be noted as a negative and no disciplinary action taken.
