13 <br />e. In any case where a collection is monitored by non medical personnel or is <br />directly observed, the collection site person shall be of the same gender as the <br />donor. <br /> <br />Specimen Collection Procedures <br /> <br />Designation of collection site <br /> <br />1 The Company’s drug testing program shall have one or more designated <br />collection sites which have all necessary personnel, materials, equipment, <br />facilities and supervision to provide for the collection, security, temporary <br />storage, and shipping or transportation of urine specimens to a certified drug <br />testing laboratory. <br />2 A designated collection site shall be a location having an enclosure within which <br />private urination can occur, a toilet for completion of urination (unless a single <br />use collector is used with sufficient capacity to contain the void), and a suitable <br />clean surface for writing. The site must also have a source of water for washing <br />hands, which if practicable should be external to the enclosure where urination <br />occurs. <br /> <br />Security <br /> <br />1 Procedures shall provide for the designated collection site to be secure. If a <br />collection site facility is dedicated solely to urine collection, it shall be secure at <br />all times.

Only the collection <br />site person may handle specimens prior to their securement in the mailing <br />container or monitor or observe specimen collection. In order to promote security <br />of specimens, avoid distraction of the collection site person and insure against any <br />confusion in the identification of specimens, the collection site person shall have <br />only one donor under their supervision at any time. For this purpose, a collection
