Drug and Alcohol Workplace Testing

The economic and human costs of drug and alcohol use are astounding. Numerous studies, reports and surveys suggest that substance abuse is having a profoundly negative affect on the workplace in terms of decreased productivity and increased accidents, absenteeism, turnover, and medical costs.

According to results of a National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) sponsored survey, drug-using employees are 2.2 times more likely to request early dismissal or time off, 2.5 times more likely to have absences of eight days or more, three times more likely to be late for work, 3.6 times more likely to be involved in a workplace accident, and five times more likely to file a workers’ compensation claim.

JobCare Occupational Health Services can assist your company with your workplace drug and alcohol testing services for the Department of Transportation (DOT) and Non-DOT screenings. Urine drug screening, hair analysis drug screening, and Breath Alcohol Testing (BAT) services are available for pre-employment, random, and post-accident and reasonable suspicion testing. We are excited to announce that we have recently partnered with eScreen Drug Testing Technology to provide rapid drug screening through the first instant, automated, on-site drug-testing device, which provides negative results within minutes versus the industry standard of forty-eight to seventy-two hours.
