all. <br />3. Random <br />Unannounced random testing is required on certain percentage <br />of drivers each year. <br />How: The random selection process used shall ensure that <br />each driver has an equal chance of being tested each time <br />selections are made. <br />When: Drivers are randomly selected from the pool. Random <br />testing for alcohol shall be completed just before, during <br />or immediately after performing safety- sensitive work. <br />Random testing for drugs may be done at any time you are at <br />work. Once you are notified that you have been selected for <br />random testing, you must proceed immediately to the test <br />site. <br />Random testing is done as follows: <br />* 25% of all drivers shall be randomly tested for alcohol <br />during the first year of the testing program. The <br />number to be randomly tested in following years depends <br />on the percentage of positive tests for the entire <br />industry. <br />* 50% of drivers shall be randomly tested for controlled <br />substances during each year of the testing program. <br />4. Reasonable suspicion <br />When: If your supervisor has reason to believe that your <br />behavior or appearance may indicate alcohol or drug use. <br />Testing for reasonable suspicion is based on: <br />* the observances of a trained supervisor <br />* specific, clearly stated observations concerning the <br />driver's appearance, behavior, speech or body odor <br />* observations made for alcohol testing shall be made <br />just before, during, or just after the performance of a <br />safety- sensitive function. <br />Important points: <br />* The supervisor who makes the observation and determines that <br />reasonable suspicion testing should be done, may not conduct <br />the alcohol test on the driver. <br />* Alcohol testing for reasonable suspicion must be done within <br />two hours of the observation. Tests that cannot be done <br />within eight hours of the observation shall not be done. <br />* You cannot report for duty or stay on the job while under <br />the influence of alcohol or while impaired by alcohol as <br />shown by behavior, speech, or performance that indicates <br />alcohol misuse. You will not be allowed to continue to <br />perform safety- sensitive duties until: <br />Your alcohol concentration is less than 0.02. <br />-5- <br />Page 57 <br />
