AI Summary

  • Requires employers to provide law enforcement and probation officers with results of fitness for duty examinations if the officer is determined unable to perform essential job functions due to physical or psychological conditions.

  • Results must be provided immediately if the officer presents results of an independent examination, or within five days if the officer waives the right to request an independent examination.

  • If a psychological condition is involved and the officer requests an independent examination, the employer must provide pre-examination materials only to the physician or psychologist conducting the independent examination, unless otherwise required by law.

  • Defines key terms including "fitness for duty examination," "independent examination," "law enforcement officer," "probation officer," and "pre-examination materials" for purposes of the statute.

  • Does not prohibit pre-examination materials from being used in proceedings under section 38-1101, and sharing pre-examination materials with independent examiners does not change existing disclosure requirements.
