what do you need?

Before the driver performs a safety-sensitive function for the first time, the driver should be tested for controlled substances. DOT requires employees to receive negative pre-employment test results before performing security-sensitive duties.

What does the DOT test include?

Amphetamines, cocaine, marijuana, opiates, PCP, ecstasy

What is the random testing rate?

Current Random Test Rate Chart

50% drugs, 10% alcohol - these ratios are the lowest. Many employers choose higher rates to reduce the risk of drug- or alcohol-related incidents.

How does this work?

Best Practices for DOT Random Drug and Alcohol Testing.

Random selection process: Employees are included in a pool called a consortium, and a computer system randomly selects people.

Selected employees are told to take a direct drug/alcohol test.

Drug consortium: The Department of Transportation (DOT) requires drug and alcohol testing for motor carriers. This is critical to ensuring that drivers can safely operate commercial motor vehicles. Whether a company has thousands of drivers or just one owner-operator, it must have a drug and alcohol testing program in place to stay compliant and avoid hefty fines.  The DOT Consortium Drug is an association of several different companies that form a larger testing pool. This is required for owner operators or small companies, and even larger vehicle operators can benefit from partnering with third parties to provide DOT compliance services.

These include: • Consortium/Third Party Administrators will be aware of DOT compliance and will keep your company up to date with the latest changes. • Your alliance can help
