Hair Drug Test for Employers - Workplace Drug Test
Hair Drug Tests are rapidly becoming an effective method of drug testing employees. Employers are well aware of the liability, loss of productivity and health issues that arise when an employee abuses drugs. Drug testing is commonplace in the workplace for random drug testing, pre-employment drug testing or for other reasons such as cause, suspicion, return to duty, post accident or event follow up. However, employee drug testing can be expensive and uncomfortable in the work environment. A hair drug test gives employers an on-site solution that is accurate, reliable and less invasive and less likely to be altered or tampered with by the person being tested.
A hair drug test uses a small sample of hair that is cut at the scalp and mailed to a laboratory. The results are provided online in a report format that provides a 90 day drug use history.
