3160 - PHYSICAL EXAMINATION

The Board of Education requires any candidate, as a condition of employment, to submit to an examination, including a test for tuberculosis, in order to determine the physical capacity to perform assigned duties. Such examinations shall be done in accordance with 118.25 Wis. Stats., and/or the terms of the collective bargaining agreement.

The Board shall also require the candidate to submit to a test for controlled substances the results of which must indicate there is no evidence of non-prescribed drug use.

Reports of all such examinations or evaluations shall be delivered to the District Administrator, who shall protect their confidentiality. Reports will be discussed with the employee or candidate. The reports, and any documents acquired containing genetic information, will be maintained in a separate confidential personnel medical file in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA). In the event of a report of a condition that could influence job performance, the District Administrator shall base a nonemployment recommendation to the Board upon a conference with the examining physician and substantiation that the condition is directly correlated to defined job responsibilities and reasonable accommodation will not allow the employee or prospective employee to adequately fulfill those responsibilities. Freedom from tuberculosis in a communicable form is a condition of employment.

The Board shall assume the fees for examinations.
