Know Everything ABout Periodic Drug Testing

Implement periodic testing protocols at your workplace by adding it to your policy and create a better workplace.

What is periodic testing?

Periodic testing involves testing the entire employee base of a company or business on a regular basis. It usually happens on an annual basis and is strictly administered to all the current employees whether or not they’ve been in a workplace accident. 

You might have a question: how does periodic testing differ from other tests?

Usually, following are the types and reasons of tests conducted at a workplace:

Post-accident drug testing: Conducted in the case of an accident happened at workplace or during working hours

Pre-employment drug testing: Conducted before hiring a candidate to work full-time at a workplace.

These drug and alcohol tests are done in case of accidents, suspicious activity or at the very least, before employment. However, the pre-employment test might only cover new employees.

Similarly, the tests done in instances of accidents might only cover the employees involved or suspected. How do you know if the rest of your enemies are using drugs or alcohol? The solution is “periodic testing”.

What are the benefits of periodic testing?

  • Stops employees from developing drug and alcohol addictions

  • Helps employees overcome their addictions

  • Reduces costs and increases productivity

  • Is more acceptable to employees
