All testing of employees and contractors must be authorized by the appropriate management of Total Energy which includes General Manager, Operations Manager, HSE Coordinator or equivalent positions.

If a request is received from a customer to test an individual employee or contractor, the appropriate manager shall report the request to operational management for evaluation and approval. The manager shall communicate the details surrounding the request, in order to permit operational management to make a decision on testing.
Testing Procedures and Parameters
Alcohol and drug testing will occur within a designated time frame as determined by Total Energy. Unless otherwise directed by Total Energy, all testing shall be conducted by Total Energy's approved testing service provider or by approved Total Energy personnel. All test samples and results shall be treated as confidential by Total Energy, subject to such reasonable disclosure as is required in order to manage the individual employment or contractor relationship. The custody and security of all test samples and results shall be in accordance with the standards as established by third party service providers.
Alcohol testing will be conducted by saliva testing. Drug testing will consist of saliva or urine testing unless otherwise determined by Total Energy.
A positive alcohol test result is measured at a .04 BAC (blood alcohol consumption).
