The stewards may have a licensed person submit to a medical examination by a licensed physician or emergency medical technician, to a chemical analysis of the licensed person's breath, urine, or saliva by a qualified law enforcement officer, or to the drawing of blood by a registered nurse to determine that person's ability to perform the duties assigned to that position. If the results of this examination indicate that the person is temporarily unable to perform the assigned duties or if any person refuses the examination, the stewards shall remove the person from the assigned duties until the person is able to perform the duties. This removal is not a suspension.
