Only test for Recs

Here in NYC where I used to be OTJ they tested for rec drugs and nicotine cause you have to sign that smoke free healthcare proxy card . As for anabolic androgenic steroids one of my friend that got moved up to Batt. Chief said that in the next 5 years if not sooner the NFPA and OSHA will start random testing just to get a base line fit it's a issue they need to take up.Tell you the truth that's not going to wash with the union at all.

but if it's for vol. dept. the only test you do it a fit test to check your eyes, breathing and heart condition and max Vo2 test and a spinal exam to check of problems.Also they do a hernia exam(drop your shorts turn your head and cough) is all and if they go as far as drug testing it's only for Hep,A,B,C and any blood borne pathogen cause dealing with people you will be exposed many time while on the job.
