Who Is Subject to DOT Testing?

In cases deemed appropriate by experienced supervisors, your business has the authority, in coordination with the Department of Transportation (DOT), to request drug tests. This technique helps to ensure that employees operate in a safe and secure environment.

• Federal Transit Administration (FTA)
• Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA)
• United States Coast Guard (USCG)

Motor carriers, churches, civic organizations, and government entities of all levels are also required to uphold the standards set by the Department of Transportation.

What Drugs Does the DOT Test For?

When it comes to completing DOT drug testing requirements, our lab is dedicated to providing the highest level of accuracy and expertise. Our 5-panel DOT drug test, which has become an industry standard, screens for five different forms of drugs, including:

• Cocaine
• Marijuana
• Opioids
• Amphetamines
• Phencyclidine (PCP)

Does the DOT Require Alcohol Testing?

The Department of Transportation (DOT) created a new safety standard in 1991 by requiring drug and alcohol testing for employees in safety-sensitive professions such as aviation, motor carriers, railroads, and mass transportation. DOT alcohol testing detects alcohol concentration values of 0.02 or higher.
