Two Marketing Opportunities

The DOT's Final Rule goes into effect next Monday! These updated regulations will impact all industry professionals, changes rules regarding instructions to collectors, laboratories, medical review officers, and employers regarding adulterated, substituted, diluted, and invalid urine specimen results. It also makes specimen validity testing mandatory within regulated transportation industries.

Drug-Free Work Week is August 20th to 26th. This week is dedicated each year to highlight the benefits that drug-free workplace programs bring to employers, workers and communities. And, it’s a time to work toward making every week a drug-free work week!
