All center operators must comply with Job Corps' zero tolerance policy as established by the Secretary. Job Corps has a zero tolerance policy for infractions including but not limited to:
Acts of violence, as defined by the Secretary;
Use, sale, or possession of a controlled substance, as defined at 21 U.S.C. 802;
Abuse of alcohol;
Possession of unauthorized goods; or
Other illegal or disruptive activity.
As part of this policy, all students must be tested for drugs as a condition of participation.
The zero tolerance policy specifies the offenses that result in the separation of students from the Job Corps. The center director is expressly responsible for determining when there is a violation of this policy.
