Drug Screening


The misuse of drugs in the work place is well publicized. Drugs are costing the American business community billions of dollars every year. Consider the loss of productivity, medical expenses, absenteeism and work-place crime related to drug abuse – all affecting your bottom line. Drug abuse is not isolated to a few "types" of employees or even a certain type of company. They are as prevalent on Main Street as they are on Wall Street.

Consider these statistics:

  • Nearly 7% of adults employed full-time and 9% of those employed part-time currently use illegal drugs
    (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration)
  • More than 70% of substance abusers hold some type of job
    (American Council of Drug Education)
