Consistent with the county’s policy to maintain a safe, healthy, drug-free work environment in compliance with the Drug-Free Work Place Act of 1988 and the Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act of 1991, and in the interest of assuring the safety of the general public by employing persons in safety sensitive positions that do not abuse alcohol or illegal drugs, the following policies are adopted and strictly adhered to by the county. For purposes of complying with federal drug and alcohol regulations, the substance abuse testing procedures for employees covered by the Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act of 1991 (commercial driver’s license) shall be established and administered separately from the county’s overall substance abuse testing program.
