Drug Testing

Spelman is committed to providing a safe, efficient, and productive work environment for all employees. Using or being under the influence of drugs or alcohol on the job may pose serious safety and health risks. To help ensure a safe and healthful working environment, certain job applicants may be asked to provide body substance samples (such as urine and/or blood) to determine the illicit or illegal use of drugs and alcohol.

 

Applicants for positions in Public Safety, Student Health and Counseling Services and other positions deemed to be essential to campus safety and public health and applicants who will be operating school owned vehicles and machinery may be required to demonstrate that they are drug and alcohol free.

 

Current employees that are involved in work related accidents that involve vehicles may also be subject to drug or alcohol tests
