How am I treated differently under a drug free workplace program than non-federally regulated employees?
A. 1) For DOT employees, drug tests are done using urine samples, and alcohol screenings done with a saliva sample or a breath alcohol test (confirmatory test must be breath alcohol test). For non-DOT employees, drug tests are done using urine samples, and alcohol tests may be made using blood samples. 2) Federally regulated employees are required to submit to random testing. 3) DOT supervisors must attend a one-time training session on the signs and symptoms of drug and alcohol abuse.
