What is a drug and alcohol screening?
Drug and alcohol testing helps identify alcohol and both prescription and illegal drugs in an individual’s body. Drug and alcohol testing is a common practice for employers for pre-employment, as well as random, reasonable suspicion, post-accident, return-to-duty, follow-up drug testing, etc. Drug and alcohol testing can be conducted through a variety of testing methodologies, including oral-fluid, urinalysis, and hair, each offering a different window of detection which is especially beneficial when combined with two or more testing methodologies.
Which CCF forms have changed?
The Department of Transportation (DOT) recently made two key changes to DOT-regulated Custody and Control Forms (CCF), which is pertinent to those using paper forms. The first change is the addition of a Commercial Driver's License (CDL) state and number. The second change is that the new form accommodates the future use of oral fluid (saliva) specimens for DOT testing. More information can be found on our article "DOT-Regulated CCF Changes You Need to Be Aware Of".
