1.6.31 Government Requested Screening

1.6.31.1 The CO/ or COR/Alternate COR shall have the express right to request targeted urine drug screenings where there is a reasonable belief by the Government that the Contract employee(s) may be under the influence of or using illegal substances. Targeted screenings shall be conducted in a similar fashion to random screenings, with the exception that the COR/Alternate COR will advise the PM in writing that s/he requests a drug screening of a specific security guard. Once the written request is received, the PM shall arrange for the test to be conducted immediately for any officer suspected of being under the influence. The Contractor shall pay the Contract employee the normal hourly rate/salary for all time associated with taking the screening. Each screening shall follow the guidelines described in Section 6.5.4, Pre-Employment Drug Screening.

1.6.31.2 Contract employees who undergo either random or targeted urine drug screenings may continue working under the Contract until the results have been provided to the Contractor. In the event that the results of any urine drug screening, whether random or targeted, are negative, the Government shall bear the expense of the screening. (NOTE: this does not apply to the pre-employment urine drug screening). The Contractor shall invoice the Government for the actual cost of the drug screening plus the hourly rate paid to the Contract employee(s) to take the test. In the event that the results are positive, the Contractor shall immediately remove the Contract employee(s) with a positive reading from the Contract and immediately inform the COR and CO of the result and the employee’s removal from the Contract. Additionally, the Contractor shall bear all the expenses relating to the test for the employee(s) with the positive reading.

1.6.31.3 Any Contract employee who undergoes either a random or targeted urine drug screening and tests positive for any of the substances shown above shall be permanently disqualified from working under this or any other FPS security guard services contract. Since most drugs are metabolized within a short period, the affected Contract employee shall not be authorized to take additional tests to achieve an acceptable reading.
