Shy Breath Procedure If an employee does not provide a sufficient amount of breath to permit a valid breath test, the BAT instructs the employee to attempt again to provide a sufficient amount of breath. If the employee refuses to make the attempt, the BAT must discontinue the test, note the fact on the "Remarks"line of the ATF, and immediately notify the DER. This is a refusal to test. If the employee again attempts and fails to provide a sufficient amount of breath, the BAT may provide another opportunity if there is a strong likelihood that it could result in providing a sufficient amount of breath. When the employee has failed to produce a sufficient amount of breath, the BAT must note the fact on the "Remarks" line of the ATF and immediately notify the DER. If an EBT that has the capability of operating manually is being used, the BAT may attempt to conduct the test in manual mode. As the employer, when the BAT informs you that the employee has not provided a sufficient amount of breath, the employer must direct the employee to obtain, within five days, an evaluation from a licensed physician acceptable to the employer and who has expertise in the medical issues raised by the employee's failure to provide a sufficient specimen. The physician will provide a written statement of their conclusions to the DER directly. Upon receipt of the report from the examining physician, the DER must immediately inform the employee and take appropriate action based upon TGB UNLIMITED, INC. DBA SIT BANCROFT ELECTRIC policy. 10
