AccuScreen uses fully licensed and accredited toxicology laboratories with SAMHSA/DHHS (formerly NIDA) certification for toxicology testing.

Substance abuse testing is required by Federal and State statutes for many safety sensitive positions. Testing has also become an integral part of many employers' health and safety programs. Studies have shown employees who are substance abusers are:

• Less productive
• Use more sick days
• Use more medical benefits
• More likely to have on-the-job accidents Aside from these costs, the impact on non-using employees who feel anger and resentment toward the abuser affects company morale and profitability.

Why Utilize Worksite Substance Abuse Testing?

• To comply with federally mandated employee drug testing.
• To provide a drug-free workplace environment for employees.
• To monitor a patient in treatment.

AccuScreen can offer a program to meet all of your needs. Through chain-of-custody procedures and Medical Review Officer evaluation, AccuScreen will provide fully defensible results, in a timely manner.

While the main focus is on drug testing, AccuScreen is able to provide assistance in many areas of employment screening like alcohol and criminal background, in addition to non-employee services like DNA testing.

Providing a Comprehensive Program

A complete substance abuse program consists of the following major components:

• A written Substance Abuse Policy.
• An Employee Education and Awareness Program.
• A Supervisor Training Program.
