In the last ten years, drug testing in the workplace has gone from a nonentity to virtual universal employer acceptance. Consider the following:
- The DOL estimates the cost of substance abuse to employers ranges from $75 billion to $100 billion annually.
- Drug abusers use three times more sick leave than non-users, use 16 times more health care benefits and are six times more likely to file a workers’ compensation claim.
- 70% of those Americans who engage in illicit drug use are employed.
- 30% of arrests for prescription drug abuse involve persons employed in a professional capacity.
Over 90% of Fortune 500 companies drug test candidates and/or current employees. This drives drug-abusing candidates to those firms without a testing program. Some companies avoid testing due to myths which have arisen regarding the procedures for testing. Click here for more information to learn what is myth and what is reality.
