RANDOM TESTING <br />After the individual's completion of the initial drug test (with a negative result), he/she will be <br />placed in the Random Pool after which he/she will be notified via U.S. mail to report to an approved <br />collection site for a random drug test. The individuals chosen for a random drug test will be selected <br />anonymously, from a computerized selection program. Fifty percent (50%) of the currently active <br />BCRC individual cardholders will be selected annually for random testing. Then, on a monthly <br />basis, one -twelfth (1/12) of the selected employees will be notified to submit to a random test in <br />order to update their BCRC identification cards and status. A copy of the form letters notifying <br />individuals of their selection for this random test appears as an attachment A, B, C & D at the back <br />of this booklet. <br />Employees will be required to report to an approved collection site within seven (7) days from the <br />date of the Notice for Random Testing letter in order to maintain their BCRC identification card and <br />status. No employee will be required to submit to a random test more than twice (2) in a twelve (12) <br />month period. All employees will be selected for a random at least once (1) every two (2) years. <br />If an employee does not provide a sample at an approved collection site within seven (7) days of <br />having been notified of a random selection, his/her status in the BCRC Substance Abuse Program <br />will be deemed "Not Available." Employees who fail to report for a random test in the required <br />time should contact the Third Party Administrator (TPA). If an employee does not report for a <br />random test, and it is the first (1) time the employee has failed to report, the TPA may allow the <br />employee to take the test without reporting to the EAP for further review. Employees may choose to <br />take a "First Occurrence Clause" at this time. Employees may utilize this clause only one (1) time. <br />However, once this "First Occurrence Clause" has been utilized, an employee who fails to report for <br />a random test at any time in the future will be required to contact to the EAP for evaluation and to <br />
