Drug Abuse Test

Pre-employment and employment drug screening for the presence of prescription and illicit drugs helps employers maintain a safer, more productive workplace and:

• • Decreases employee absenteeism and turnover
• • Reduces risk of accidents and injuries
• • Prevents drug use on the job
• • Identifies drug use early by employees
• • Lowers workers’ compensation rates

The purpose of drug testing is to determine if controlled substances are present in a person’s body. Drug screening provides evidence of recent use of specific prescription and illicit drugs, but does not measure the specific amount of drug present.
