Legal Documents of Dandridge

All job applicants of the Town of Dandridge will undergo testing for substance abuse as a condition of employment. Any applicant with a confirmed positive test result will be denied employment.

Applicants will be required to submit voluntarily to a urinalysis test at a laboratory chosen by the town, and by signing a consent agreement, will release the town from liability.

If the physician, official or lab personnel has reasonable suspicion to believe that the job applicant has tampered with the specimen, the applicant will not be considered for employment.

The town will not discriminate against applicants for employment because of a past history of drug or alcohol abuse. It is the current illegal use of drugs and/or abuse of alcohol, preventing employees from performing their jobs properly, that the town will not tolerate. (Ord. #17/18-03, Jan. 2018)
