Browning Chapman, LLC <br />DRUG FREE WORKPLACE POLICY <br />Chapter 5 Page 18 of 477 © Safety Resources, Inc. 2016 <br />C. SANCTIONS/CONSEQUENCES IMPOSED FOR FAILING A DRUG TEST <br />CCS requires contractor employees who test positive or refuse to test, to surrender his CCS Substance Abuse Card. The <br />CCS contractor is required to refer those persons testing positive to a Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) for evaluation <br />and treatment. The CCS website has a listing of various SAP’s located in the Indianapolis area, who are familiar with the <br />CCS substance abuse program and are aware of the items required by CCS before the employee can be returned to duty. <br />CCS is not recommending these SAP’s, rather making this listing available as a service to our members. The e mployee <br />must complete a program of rehabilitation to include the following steps to be eligible to return to a CCS owner site: <br />1.The employee must arrange for an evaluation with a Substance Abuse Professional (SAP). <br />2.The SAP evaluation must specify that the employee attend education classes and/or treatment, and that the <br />employee be required to perform the actions recommended by the SAP, or his assigned rehabilitation <br />specialists, and also require that the employee be subject to random follow-up testing not less than three times <br />within the next twelve month period from his return to work test. (In cases where the employee was unable to <br />complete a required follow-up test due to being laid off or is working out of town, etc., the length of time that <br />was designated by the SAP to complete their follow-up tests will be extended by the length of time they are <br />noncompliant for not reporting for the test. Additionally the employee will not be allowed to take another CCS <br />drug test for at least 14 days from the date of the first positive test. <br />3.The employee is required to submit a letter from the SAP to the CCS database, concerning their fitness for duty. <br />The letter from the SAP must state the individual is fit for duty, can be returned to work, and is eligible for the <br />return to duty test. <br />4.The employee must submit to a return to duty test and receive a negative result and the result must be <br />submitted to the CCS database for entry. <br />5.The employee must actively complete any ongoing rehabilitation and follow up testing required by the SAP to <br />keep the CCS card valid. <br />6.Arrangement for all costs of the above items is the responsibility of the employee. <br />7.An employee/worker testing positive three times within a twelve-month period will not be eligible to retest or <br />obtain a CCS Substance Abuse Card for a period of one year, and will therefore be unable to work on CCS <br />owner’s sites during that period. <br />8.The imposition of any of the above sanctions shall result in the employee/worker surrendering his CCS <br />Substance Abuse Card. The emplo yee’s card shall be rendered “invalid” in the database. <br />9.The result of a person using a counterfeit drug card will be the same as a positive drug test.
