Sec. 339.205  Medical evaluation programs.

    Agencies may establish periodic examination or immunization programs 
by written policies or directives to safeguard the health of employees 
whose work may subject them or others to significant health or safety 
risks due to occupational or environmental exposure or demands. The need 
for a medical evaluation program must be clearly supported by the nature 
of the work. The specific positions covered must be identified and the 
applicants or incumbents notified in writing of the reasons for 
including the positions in the program.
