Does Ameren drug test?

It is the goal of Ameren to establish and maintain a safe work environment that is free from the negative effects of alcohol and drugs.

While Ameren does not intend to intrude unnecessarily into the private lives of its employees, it does expect employees to be committed to their core value of safety and report for work in a condition fit to perform competently and safely their duties and responsibilities and to be mindful of how their conduct (even "off duty" conduct) reflects on their responsibilities as an Ameren employee.

The use, manufacture, distribution, dispensation, sale, or possession of alcohol or drugs while in an Ameren vehicle, on Ameren property, or during work time may result in disciplinary action, up to and including discharge; officers may give advance approval for the use or possession of alcohol in connection with authorized events.

Upon request by Ameren or as required by Ameren policy or law, employees must submit to a drug or alcohol test.

Suppose the test confirms the presence of a drug or medication being abused or indicates a blood-alcohol content in excess of.04% while in an Ameren vehicle, on Ameren property, or during the employee's work time, then the employee is subject to disciplinary action, up to and including discharge.

If an employee refuses to submit to a drug or alcohol test, the employee may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including discharge.
