(b) Any person offered employment with the Justice of the Peace Court as a uniformed services employee shall be required to submit to mandatory drug screening pursuant to this section and the regulations promulgated by the Justice of the Peace Court.  Such regulations shall require drug testing for the following controlled substances:

(c) Conditional offer.--Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, the Justice of the Peace Court may make a conditional offer of employment to an applicant who has submitted to the required drug screening.  No person made a conditional offer of employment shall receive an official starting date until the results of their preemployment drug screen have been received.  Any applicant made a conditional offer of employment shall be informed that the results of that applicant's drug screen have been requested.

(d) The Justice of the Peace Court shall adopt policies and procedures for imposing sanctions, which may include referral to the State's Employee Assistance Program, suspension or termination, upon any uniformed services employee who wilfully refuses to submit to random or reasonable suspicion testing or whose drug screen indicates that such person has illegally used or consumed a drug or drugs.  No employee shall be sanctioned when such person has used or consumed the drug or drugs detected according to the directions and terms of a lawfully obtained prescription for such drug or drugs.
