Employer Drug Testing.
Drug test is the process of determining whether a person consumes drugs. The test extracts some body fluid or body part and uses it as a sample. This sample is then tested for the presence of drug residues. Drug tests are named after this sample. Thus we have the urine drug test, blood test, saliva swab test, sweat test and the hair drug test.
Drug use is a major problem in the United States. During surveys conducted by reliable agencies more than 80% of adults confessed having used at least less potent drugs during their school and college days. And 17% used more potent drugs like cocaine and methamphetamine in the same periods of their life. Many people regard drug abuse as the number one problem confronting the nation. Drug use by employees leads to chronic under performance and absenteeism. It also makes them prone to accidents inside and outside the workplace. These accidents can endanger the life and property of other employees as well. Drug users tend to be more violent and aggressive, and this can disturb the tranquility and peaceful environment in workplaces.
Discovery of drug use in drug tests has proved to be a strong deterrent against drug use. With this in mind the Drug Free Workplace Act was brought into being in 1988. The act made drug testing compulsory for government employees. Many private employers voluntarily adopted the provisions of the act. The kind of drug test you can be made to undergo as an employee depends on your area of operation.One of the solutions to pass drug test is to detoxify the human body.
The urine drug test is the most common of all drug tests. Kidneys retain toxins before eliminating them through urine. The urine test is an optimum test in many respects – in tracing drug consumption history, in accuracy and when considering expenses. The saliva drug test is used where knowledge of recent drug use is more important. Such areas include automobile and equipment driving, insurance business and the like. It is also employed as a surprise or short notice test as it can be quickly and easily conducted. The hair test is used where accuracy and tracing drug consumption patterns for a larger period is necessary. These tests are generally conducted by the armed forces for screening new recruits.
