DOT Drug and Alcohol Testing

DOT requires individuals to have negative drug test results on file before commencing safety-sensitive functions. Pre-employment testing can also help you (the employer) identify drug users before hiring them. Some employers let applicants pay for their own pre-employment testing (in states that don't prohibit them), and then reimburse the cost of the test after the employee has been with the company for a period of time (such as six months).

Five drugs and drug metabolites were tested in the DOT program: cannabis, cocaine, amphetamines, opiates, and phencyclidine (PCP).

Collection sites are an easy answer to where DOT-regulated employees are tested for substance abuse. Collection points may be located at medical facilities, mobile facilities, dedicated collection facilities, or any other location as long as applicable Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements are met. Under DOT regulations, the facility must employ qualified collectors and provide donors with a lot of privacy when urinating. The collection site must also have all necessary personnel, supervision, materials, equipment and facilities to provide temporary storage and transport of specimens to the laboratory.





Under DOT regulations, you must participate in a comprehensive drug and alcohol testing program that includes random testing. You and other companies are closely monitored by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's CSA2010 safety measurement system, and issues of drug and alcohol or any other DOT compliance category may trigger a review of your company at any time. Once the FMCSA finds out that your acquaintance has no plans, the fines will add up quickly.

Many people think they can get a negative test result by adulterating their urine samples. However, this effort to produce negative test results is often demonstrated in laboratory-conducted validity tests. Sometimes people who use adulterants identify themselves. We've had situations where someone said he couldn't get a positive test result because he used a guaranteed adulterant.
