What happens to an employee once a drug test is ordered by the division commander?

When a drug test is ordered by the division commander, the standard procedure is for the employee to be immediately removed from their duties. This protocol is in place to ensure the safety of the workplace and to maintain the integrity of the testing process. By removing the individual from active duty, the department can prevent any potential risks that might arise if an employee were to continue performing their responsibilities while awaiting test results. This approach emphasizes the seriousness with which the department treats drug testing, reflecting both legal obligations and internal policies designed to uphold operational effectiveness and responsibility.
