Drug-Free Alliance Program

All apprentices and individuals who want to become apprentices are required to undergo drug testing. Refer to the Drug-Free Alliance Program for details.

Testing

As a condition of accepting an offer of apprenticeship, all individuals shall pass a pre-employment drug test. If the applicant fails to comply with the policy or the test results return as positive the offer of apprenticeship shall be rescinded. All apprentices and participants in training shall be tested at least once, but not limited to one occasion, during each year of training.

Random Selection Process

Participants will be selected randomly from the 100% pool. The names of selected participants will not be returned to the pool, so that every year all Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (JATC) apprentices will have been tested at least once. At the same time all participants will be part of a second pool in which 10% of the participants will be selected for testing each year. Participants in the 10% pool can be selected for testing at any time even if they have been previously selected from the 100% or 10% pools.

Consequences

Upon a first positive test or non-compliance with the policy, the participant shall be referred to the Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (JATC) for disciplinary action. Disciplinary action may include, but is not limited to the following:

  1. Referral to the Member Assistance Program (MAP) for evaluation and compliance with MAP recommendations;
  2. Disciplinary un-assignment, and
  3. Possible recommendation to the JATC for cancellation of the apprenticeship or training program.

Upon a second positive test or non-compliance with the policy, a recommendation will be made to the JATC for cancellation of the apprenticeship or training program.

Visit the Drug-Free Alliance Program section for further details.
