Your drug and alcohol testing policy and procedures need to specify the drugs that are being tested. The cost of the higher panel is $72 for in-network and $78 for out of network.

 

Customized Drug Free Workplace Act & employee education


As mandated by the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988, all governmental agencies receiving federal grant monies must provide a drug-free workplace. Heightened attention of late has sparked closer scrutiny on updating drug & alcohol policies and educating employees about their personal choices in off-hours that may affect their on-duty performance. This is a customized training tailored to your organization.
