§ 2-242. Release of test information by previous employers.

Within fourteen (14) days of the first time an employee performs a safety sensitive function for the city, the city is required by law to obtain information from an employee's previous employer on the employee's positive drug test results, alcohol test results of four hundredths (.04) or greater and refusals to be tested for drugs or alcohol within the preceding two (2) years. This information must be obtained with the consent of the employee. Other information relating to an employee's drug and alcohol use may be obtained, pursuant to the employee's consent, by the city. Any such request must be accompanied by the employee's written authorization for release of the information. Refusal to consent to release of this information by the employee has the same consequences as a positive test result.
