B-10 AN ALCOHOL CONCENTRATION OF 0.02 - 0.039 (Ref 382.5051 If the violation is limited to an alcohol concentration of 0.02 or greater but less than 0.04, the employee will not be permitted to perform any safety sensitive function for the Company until the start of the employee's next regular shift, but not less than 24 hours following such result.

[Ref 49 CFR 382.505(b)] B-11 THE EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL AND CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE USE The Company will provide information and training to employees as to the effects of alcohol and controlled substances use on health, work, and personal life; signs and symptoms of an alcohol or a controlled substances problem; and available methods of intervening when an alcohol or a controlled substances problem is suspected (including confrontation) and referral to any assistance resources available to the employee or his/her dependents. Such information and training is considered a part of this policy and will be provided prior to the first request for a test administered under this policy. (See Appendix A) FMCSA regulations and Company policy require that all persons designated to supervise employees who perform safety -sensitive functions receive training regarding substance abuse. Assistance with intervention, confrontation or referral (whether to an SAP or to management) regarding substance abuse can be obtained from any such supervisor, or from the DER listed on page 3. C OPTIONAL PROVISIONS C-1. Stand -Down. The Company has not received a waiver (nor, at this time, applied for a waiver) to "Stand Down" employees from their safety -sensitive duties pending completion of the MRO verification process (see 40.21). C-2. Self -Referral and Unpaid Leave of Absence General. An employee who requests a leave of absence under this provision may provide the Company with actual knowledge of drug or alcohol use prohibited by DOT regulations and therefore be subject to consequences specified by DOT regulations and this policy. Following the request for leave of absence (whether or not the leave is granted) the employee will not be permitted to perform safety sensitive duties for the Company until the Company is satisfied that s/he has been evaluated and has successfully completed the requirements of 49 CFR 40, Subpart O. By the inclusion of this provision, the Company does not commit to retain, reinstate, or rehire the employee following either the request for leave of absence or (if granted) the completion of his or her leave of absence; any such decision will be based solely on the business needs of the Company as determined by the Company. (a) Subject to and consistent with the requirements of this provision, an employee may request an unpaid leave of absence (vs immediate discharge) not to exceed 90 days from the date of request for the purpose of referral, evaluation and treatment for substance abuse and/or alcoholism provided by a licensed SAP approved by the 2020 Drug Screens Plus.
