Pre-Employment

Pre-employment drug testing may be done prior to hiring an individual for or prior to an individual being placed in or returned to a safety-sensitive position. The regulations state that the employee cannot be placed in a safety-sensitive position until such testing has been performed, and a negative result has been obtained. We work hard to keep your program cost effective and secure from court challenges and maintain excellent customer service.

Post Accident

A covered employee may be required to submit a urine specimen for drug testing if the employee’s performance either contributed to or cannot be discounted as a contributing to or cannot be discounted as a contributing factor to an accident. In such cases, guidelines require that the employee submit a specimen as soon as possible after the accident. Some federal agencies have specific time limits by which the specimen must be collected.

Return to Duty

A covered employee may be required to submit a urine specimen for drug testing if the employee’s performance either contributed to or cannot be discounted as a contributing to or cannot be discounted as a contributing factor to an accident. In such cases, guidelines require that the employee submit a specimen as soon as possible after the accident. Some federal agencies have specific time limits by which the specimen must be collected.

Random

Employers who are subject to DOT regulations must randomly select and test a fixed percentage of their covered workforce each year. Covered positions are those that have been designated as safety sensitive. The percentage tested may vary from year to year depending on the detection or increase of the positive test rate within a specific industry such as the railroad or airline industry. The Federal Agencies determine the random testing rates for their particular industry.

Reasonable Suspicion/ just cause

If an employee is suspected by his/her employer of using a prohibited drug, the employee may be required to submit to drug testing. The decision to have such a test conducted generally requires two of the employee’s supervisors to substantiate and concur that some physical behavior or performance indicator constitutes reasonable suspicion of probable drug use. At least one of these supervisors must have received training in detecting the symptoms of possible drug use.

Follow Up

An employee who has returned to duty in a covered position after a negative return-to-duty test, may be required to submit to a series of unannounced tests, as determined by the Medical Review Officer of Substance Abuse Professional. These tests may be performed over a period of time and at random frequency. Limitations on such testing vary between agencies.
