(c) Prohibited Items. The use, sale, transfer, purchase and/or possession of a<br />

controlled substance, alcohol and/or firearms at any time before or during the work<br />

day is prohibited. Accordingly, the parties agree to adopt appropriate procedures<br />

and safeguards for the testing of employees for prohibited or controlled substances.<br />

It is agreed, with respect to such testing procedures, that:<br />

(i) no person referred from the Union hiring hall shall be allowed on-site as<br />

an employee until such person has completed and passed any test(s) required<br />

under the program;<br />

(ii) a person who is put to work immediately after having passed the tests shall<br />

be paid starting at the time the person reported for the test(s); and<br />

(iii) where a contractor requests a person to report for purposes of a pre-hire<br />

substance abuse test, and does not intend to place the person in an active work<br />

position on that day, the person shall receive four (4) hours of pay at the regular<br />

straight-time hourly rate if the test is negative.<br />

(iv) Once mutually agreed to, this uniform substance abuse prevention policy<br />

will become an Appendix to this Agreement.<br />

(d) Smoking. The parties acknowledge that the environmental and safety<br />

restrictions governing conduct at the Project site may prohibit smoking at any time<br />

in any location or facility. Violation of this restriction by any person may constitute<br />

grounds for removal from the site and may result in termination.<br />

(e) Security. The parties acknowledge that some work within the scope of this<br />

Agreement will occur in restricted security areas of an operating airport and that<br />

employees who will be required to work in such areas will, as a condition of<br />

employment on this Project, be subjected to a personal background check and<br />

security clearance pursuant to Federal Aviation Authority regulations governing the<br />

Oakland Airport. The Unions acknowledge that Union representatives will undergo<br />

the same clearance procedures as a condition to their access to these areas and<br />

therefore agree that such conditions will be imposed. Application and enforcement<br />

of such requirements may be grounds to terminate or deny an employee work on the<br />

Project or to deny access of their representatives to these Project areas.<br />

Section 2. Inspections. The inspection of incoming shipments of equipment, machinery and<br />

construction materials of every kind shall be performed at the discretion of the<br />

Contractor by individuals of its choice. All employees shall comply with the<br />

security procedures established by the Owner, DSI/PCI and/or Contractor.<br />

Section 3. Suspension of Work for Safety. A Contractor may suspend all or a portion of the<br />

job to protect the life and safety of an employee. In such cases, employees will be<br />

compensated only for the actual time worked; provided, however, that where the<br />
