INFORMATION FOR
In accordance with the steps outlined herein, a supervisor may request and an employee must submit to a "fitness for duty determination" if a supervisor believes an employee is not able to perform their duties as a result of the use of alcohol or illegal drugs based on the following circumstances:
In any of the above circumstances the supervisor and the next supervisor in line must complete the "Reasonable Suspicion-Supervisor's Observation" form. This form should be submitted to the Office of Human Resources. Based on the information received Human Resources may require the employee to undergo a medical examination to determine the cause of the disability and if the employee is fit for duty. If the incident occurs after normal business hours and Human Resources is closed, the immediate supervisor must obtain authorization for a fitness for duty examination from their supervisor (the supervisor next in line) and have the employee transported to the appropriate facility for medical examination.
The reasonable suspicion must be based on specific, reliable observations concerning the employee's appearance, behavior, speech or body odor. Some examples are but are not limited to:
Other factors to consider include:
If a Problem Is Suspected, How Does the Supervisor Proceed?
If it is after normal business hours and Human Resources and/or the next supervisor in line is unavailable at the work site, the immediate supervisor should contact by phone the next supervisor in line or the department head or designee for verbal authorization to send the employee to the appropriate medical facility. If the next supervisor in line is unavailable, the immediate supervisor should contact Campus Police for assistance to obtain such authorization of the administrator in charge of the employee's department or division. *
The physician could include a drug test as part of the examination. Confidentiality of the testing process and the results is an important aspect of this procedure for any employee.
