Section 377:3-11-9 - Consequences of refusal

(a)Employees. Any employee who refuses testing under this policy shall be subject to discipline up to and including discharge from employment. Inability to give an adequate urine sample shall be deemed a refusal, but the employee may overcome this conclusion by providing conclusive medical evidence of a pre-existing condition, which prevents the production of an adequate sample. Adulteration of a specimen of a drug or alcohol test shall be considered as a refusal to test.

(b)Job applicants. Any job applicant who has received a conditional offer of employment from OJA and who refused to undergo drug and alcohol testing will not be hired by OJA. Unreasonable delay in submitting to testing shall be deemed a refusal.
