Pre-Employment Drug Test

Why perform a pre-employment drug test?

I know I want drug screening. Tell me about your products.

Benefits of substance abuse testing:

Typically, small businesses experience the greatest burden of substance abusers. Substance abusers shy away from companies who have drug-free workplace programs in place and go to work for the small businesses without a program so they remain undetected.

Substance abuse testing can decrease: workplace accidents, production costs, medical costs, workers compensation premiums, turnover, theft and shrinkage. By implementing a substance abuse program, companies also boost employee morale and loyalty.

Consider these facts:

  • 76.4% of illicit drug users are employed
  • 11% of employees have been offered drugs to use at work
  • When compared to employees without a diagnosed substance abuse problem, alcohol abusers are 2 times as likely, drug abusers are 3 times as likely, & alcohol-and-drug abusers are 4 times as likely to be hospitalized for injury.
    -- National Drug-Free Workplace Alliance, September 21, 2005
  • Employed drug abusers are 50% more likely to steal from their employers.
    -- South Florida Business Journal, April 17, 2006.

Why ScreenNow/ Why drug and alcohol testing?

  • ChoicePoint, ScreenNow's parent company, is the largest administrator of substance abuse testing services in the US. We process more than five million drug tests each year.

  • 98% of Fortune 200 companies have implemented some type of drug testing during their pre-employment process.

  • Post-accident testing can have a powerful impact on your company's workers' compensation experience. Furthermore, some states permit insurance companies to deny or reduce workers' compensation benefits if the employee was impaired or intoxicated at the time of the accident.

  • Random testing is not only a detection device but also a successful deterrent against drug and/ or alcohol use.

  • Reasonable Cause (“reasonable suspicion”) testing gives employers an opportunity to test an employee suspected of being intoxicated or under the influence of drugs prior to injuring themselves or others.

  • Return-to-duty testing ensures that drug(s) and/or alcohol no longer impair the employee if/when they are allowed to return to work.

  • Follow-up testing ensures that your investment in a company Employee Assistance Program (or rehabilitation program) for your employees is effective.
