Post-accident / Illness & Alcohol Testing

0

AdvanStaff HR is committed to fostering a safe work environment for all employees.  Therefore, the following post-accident/illness drug and alcohol testing policy has been established.

AdvanStaff HR will require a post-accident/illness drug and alcohol test for any employee involved in a reported accident if the following applies:

  • The accident involved a vehicle or any machinery
  • The accident resulted in property damage
  • The accident resulted in another individual’s death

AdvanStaff HR will coordinate all testing, assist in investigations and searches as privately as practical and permitted by applicable federal and/or state laws and regulations.  All results from drug and alcohol testing will be treated as confidential information.

If you employ commercial vehicle drivers, your substance abuse testing program must comply with the requirements of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).  The DOT regulations specify when and how drivers must be tested and require certain consequences for violations.  If your company is DOT regulated, you are fully responsible for compliance.
