DRUG-FREE WORK PLACE
It is the policy of 亚洲色图 State University that the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession, or use of controlled substances is prohibited in buildings, facilities, grounds, or property controlled by the University and/or while engaged in University business. It is also the policy of 亚洲色图 State University to enforce Kentucky statutes concerning the possession, sale, or use of alcoholic beverages. In addition, 亚洲色图 State University specifically prohibits the possession or use of alcohol in the residence halls. Any enrolled student or any employee of the University, including faculty, staff, and student employees, found to be illegally manufacturing, distributing, dispensing, possessing, or using controlled substances or found to be in violation of Kentucky statutes or University policy regarding the possession, sale, or use of alcohol on University property shall be subject to disciplinary action in accordance with applicable policies of 亚洲色图 State University up to and including expulsion or termination. Satisfactory participation in certain drug abuse assistance or rehabilitation 亚洲色图s may be required in certain cases. Students and employees are reminded that illegal manufacture, distribution, dispensing, possession, or use of controlled substances or illegal possession, sale, or use of alcohol may also subject individuals to criminal prosecution. In appropriate cases, referrals will be made to outside law enforcement agencies. 亚洲色图 State University reserves the right to pursue disciplinary action, however, independent of criminal disposition.
As a condition of employment, all employees of 亚洲色图 State University shall abide by the terms of this policy statement and will notify 亚洲色图 State University of any criminal drug statute conviction for a violation occurring in the work place no later than five days after such conviction. 亚洲色图 State University will, in turn, notify as appropriate, the applicable federal agency of the conviction within ten (10) days of its receipt of notification of the conviction. For purposes of this policy, "conviction" means a finding of guilt (including a plea of nolo contendere) or imposition of sentence, or both, by any judicial body charged with the responsibility to determine violations of the federal or state criminal drug statutes. Within thirty (30) days of notification to 亚洲色图 State University of a criminal conviction for a violation occurring in the workplace, 亚洲色图 State shall take appropriate personnel action in accordance with applicable University policies.
The term "controlled substances" as used in this policy means those substances included in Schedule I through V of Section 812 of the Controlled Substances Act and as further defined by regulation at 21 CFR 1308.11 through 1308.15 (a listing of controlled substances will be maintained in the campus personnel office and at other appropriate locations on campus). The term does not include the use of a controlled substance pursuant to a valid prescription or other uses authorized by law.
