If the screening test and confirmatory test are positive, the City may discipline the employee. The use of illicit substances, on or off duty, will ordinarily result in termination. The improper use of prescription drugs and/or alcohol may result in a lesser discipline, depending upon the relevant circumstances. Such discipline must be uniform in its application.
