Sec. 2892. Standards of conduct


(a) Provision and enforcement

    The Secretary shall provide, and directors of Job Corps centers 
shall stringently enforce, standards of conduct within the centers. Such 
standards of conduct shall include provisions forbidding the actions 
described in subsection (b)(2)(A) of this section.

(b) Disciplinary measures

                           (1) In general

        To promote the proper moral and disciplinary conditions in the 
    Job Corps, the directors of Job Corps centers shall take appropriate 
    disciplinary measures against enrollees. If such a director 
    determines that an enrollee has committed a violation of the 
    standards of conduct, the director shall dismiss the enrollee from 
    the Job Corps if the director determines that the retention of the 
    enrollee in the Job Corps will jeopardize the enforcement of such 
    standards or diminish the opportunities of other enrollees.

             (2) Zero tolerance policy and drug testing

        (A) Guidelines

            The Secretary shall adopt guidelines establishing a zero 
        tolerance policy for an act of violence, for use, sale, or 
        possession of a controlled substance, for abuse of alcohol, or 
        for other illegal or disruptive activity.

        (B) Drug testing

            The Secretary shall require drug testing of all enrollees 
        for controlled substances in accordance with procedures 
        prescribed by the Secretary under section 2885(a) of this title.

        (C) Definitions

            In this paragraph:
            (i) Controlled substance

                The term ``controlled substance'' has the meaning given 
            the term in section 802 of title 21.
            (ii) Zero tolerance policy

                The term ``zero tolerance policy'' means a policy under

            Job Corps after a determination by the director that the 
            enrollee has carried out an action described in subparagraph 
            (A).
