Drug Testing Methods at Work Place

A drug test is commonly a technical examination to determine the presence or absence of specified drugs or their metabolized traces. According to the Chicago land Chamber of Commerce, “Over 70% of all illicit drug users are employed. Small and medium-sized firms employ 80% of the U.S. workforce where drug testing policies & programs are not in place. Absenteeism, increased health care costs and decreased productivity due to alcohol and other substance abuse cost a company $1,000 per employee per year.” It gives the importance of drug testing at work place.

Primarily there are five methods of drug testing. Those are

. Urine drug testing: Urine drug test is the most common, inexpensive, simple and easy to administer. Urine drug tests are reliable and can be tested individually and at other places.

. Blood drug testing: Blood testing is one of the most accurate drug testing but intrusive and expensive.

. Hair drug testing: When used in right time hair testing gives more accurate results and it is most expensive drug testing.

. Saliva drug testing: Oral drug testing is the simplest form of drug testing, which is increasingly used, as it is the least intrusive test procedure.

. Sweat drug testing: Sweat tests are patches attached to the skin to collect sweat over a long period of time (10–14 days).

Drug testing, and particularly random drug testing is not allowed in every state in the United States. There are certain guidelines mentioned by The Federal Drug-Free Work Place Act of 1988. Following guidelines give the minimum requirements.

. Publish a policy statement prohibiting unlawful use, possession, manufacture, or distribution of controlled substances in the workplace;

. Notify employees of said prohibition and the penalty for violating it;

. Establish a drug-free awareness program;

. Provide employees engaged in a contract with a copy of the policy statement;

. Notify employees that compliance with the policy statement is a condition of employment;

. Require (in writing in your policy) employees to notify the employer within five

. Days if they are convicted of a criminal drug statute violation occurring in the workplace;

. Make a good-faith effort to maintain a drug-free workplace through these provisions.

In 2004 SAMHSA proposed a new rule that would allow federal agencies to use sweat, saliva and hair in federal drug testing programs that now only test urine. The proposal would also allow selected specimen testing at the time and place it is collected.

Drug testing has an important role in safety-critical and other occupations where the public is entitled to expect the highest standards of safety and probity. In order to make the workforce free from drug use at work places several new methods are in line under the rules proposed by SAMHSA that are unintrusive, inescapable and yield accurate results.

What is an IQ test and where to get it? Is it common to get one before engagement? Who writes prescription?

I almost got engaged so many times but at the final moment the gals wanted me to go for an IQ test more than even a blood test? Is this a new fashion? What is IQ and IQ test? The latest Barbie Doll tells me that it is a genius test since I am so super smart and she wants to make sure the babies pop out allright?
Sounds suspicious to me. I told Barbie is she going to get one too and she said "nope, since I think you are the only one that needs two!". Now folks, any idea what this sizzler is upto. My friends warned not to go since one of the dudes went to a hocus pocus chamber for the test, got hypnotised and has been behaving weird since. He does'nt whistle at gals no more, dont bang beer steins on the table or moon the traffic out of the rear window. I know I am genius category and the babies will pop out fine and hop into adulthood. So what is the expert opinion of all those engaged before, did ya all take an IQ test too before taking the vows and smooching in front of the priest?

Sounds stupid to me. An IQ test doesn't measure how smart you are, it measures how quickly you learn. Your Barbie isn't a smarty if she thinks that her IQ won't affect ya'lls babies, the children will gather from her gene pool also. If I were you I'd look a little higher in the jungle for a girl that isn't such a baboon.
