Employer Drug Testing in Dallas
Onsite Drug Screening
There are many reasons you may want to screen your employees for drug abuse. Although some small businesses drug test only to lower their insurance premiums it is a good idea and very cost-effective to drug test any employee who handles money, interacts with customers or works with heavy equipment.
First let me introduce myself. My name is Greg Johnson and I own Any Lab Test Now® locations in North Dallas. Apart from DNA and medical lab tests we also perform on site drug screens for employers all over the North Texas and Oklahoma region.
If you stumbled upon this blog then chances are you are researching mobile drug screening for your business. Your first question will either be “can you do this…” or “how much do you charge” so I will address these two questions first.
“How much do you charge for onsite drug screening?”
We start at $39 per drug screen for employers testing 5 or more people. There is no travel charge, collection fee or additional fees. If you are testing about 25 people we charge $29 per drug screen.
“Can you do [insert question here]?”
Yes we can. I have received all sorts of questions and special instructions from employers from time to time. I can perform an onsite drug screen anywhere in North Texas/Oklahoma in practically any situation. One employer asked us to meet five of their truck drivers at a mile marker outside Denton on highway 380 between 2am and 5am in the morning and perform a DOT drug screen.
“What mobile employer drug screens are available?”
We perform either a 5-panel or 10-panel rapid drug screen. The difference in the panels is that the 10-panel includes prescription meds. Most employers find the 5-panel drug screens fit their needs. There is no difference in cost between the two panels.
“How soon will I know the results of a mobile drug screen?
We can provide the employer with negative and non-negative results within 5 minutes of collection. Employers wanting confirmation can have all non-negatives sent to the lab and results are usually ready within 24-48hrs.
We also are asked favors by employees from time to time; however, I assure you that we work for the employer. All our collectors are certified in DOT collections and unless asked by the employer otherwise we use that standard for every single collection to ensure accuracy. Most often, employers are not only drug testing their employees for piece of mind, but also to lower liability. Performing each and every onsite drug test to this standard creates fool proof evidence should a legal matter arise.
