Drug & Alcohol Testing Programs
AZC Drug Testing is known for providing comprehensive DOT compliance services. However, we also work with employers that are not required by law to test their employees. Any type of company can benefit from establishing a drug and alcohol testing program. Healthcare, schools, government agencies, transportation, financial institutions, real estate are more are just some of the types of organizations that typically test their workers. Other companies, such as manufacturers, can benefit from a drug and alcohol testing program due to the higher risk of accidents and injuries in the industry. The benefits of regular testing include the following:
- Better productivity
- Safer work environment and, consequently, reduced liability
- Lower employee turnover rates
- Cost incentives (e.g. lower workers’ compensation premiums)
When Should Employees Be Tested and
What Are the Regulations?
- Pre-employment screening
- Random drug and alcohol testing
- Post-accident testing (including, but not limited to motor vehicle accidents)
- Reasonable suspicion of drug or alcohol abuse
It is of critical importance to note that the laws regarding when employers may test vary by state. For instance, in Ohio, a job applicant may only be subjected to pre-employment screening after a job offer is extended and only with advanced notice.
That’s why so many employers choose to work with AZC Drug Testing. We don’t merely offer drug and alcohol testing packages; we also lend our in-depth expertise to our clients. When you work with our program managers, you will be guaranteed to remain in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. Risk minimization is our specialty.
