Non-DOT Drug Testing
Non-DOT Programs
A written drug free workplace policy is essential for an effective non-DOT, or standard drug-free workplace program, because it helps both you and your employees to understand what is expected and to focus on important details.
How We Help
A & G Testing can help reduce liability and improve productivity by:
-
Establish/Maintain a Certified Drug Free Workplace
-
Using only collectors trained through DATIA
-
On-site collection prevents increased downtime and the liability incurred when a substance abuser travels to a clinic on company time.
-
Providing a court defensible test every time.
DATIA/SHRM Study
DATIA (Drug and Alcohol Testing Industry Association) and SHRM (Society for Human Resource Management) recently completed a study on the efficacy of workplace drug testing programs. Findings concluded that employee drug testing improved productivity and attendance and decreased workers’ compensation and turnover.
Examples include:
-
1/5 companies studied had noticeable increase in worker productivity
-
56% improvement in absenteeism
-
57% reduction in workers’ compensation incident rates
-
16% companies studied reported a net decrease in turnover rates
