DOT Random Drug & Alcohol Testing Program

Random drug and alcohol testing are important for employers who must remain compliant with regulations set forth by the Department of Transportation (DOT). However, coming up with a DOT-compliant random testing program, and implementing said program, can be complicated and time-consuming. Certain regulations must be met in order to ensure that your business or government agency is able to continue normal, day-to-day operations.

Who Is Required to Conduct Random Drug & Alcohol Testing?

The various DOT regulations apply to different industries, there are certain employers that must carry out random drug and alcohol testing in order to remain DOT compliant. These include any employer under the six "safety-sensitive" agencies, as outlined by federal guidelines.

The six safety-sensitive agencies include:

• The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA)
• The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
• The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)
• The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA)
• The Federal Transit Administration (FTA)

Other commercial driver's license-holding employees, such as private motor carriers and church employees, may be required to undergo routine random drug and alcohol testing.
