org Affinity Program. Current Consulting Group shares below
about the challenges related to drug testing.
T
he legalization of marijuana and the fast-changing legal
landscape of employee screening laws are making
workplace drug testing more complicated than ever before.
As such, any company drug-testing policy that has not been
updated in the past 18 months is almost certainly out of
compliance, including employers who only test as required
by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT).
Some states have mandatory drug-testing laws, others
have mandatory laws specific to certain industries, while
others have voluntary laws that offer various incentives to
encourage employers to conduct drug testing. And, of course,
there is a growing mound of case law decisions that affect
drug testing practices. As an employee screening provider,
your ability to stay up to date on these ever-changing laws
is critical to providing your clients with the best possible
compliance services.
CurrentCompliance.org is the employee screening
industry's only on-line database of comprehensive and
up-to-date state drug and alcohol testing law information.
Flexible subscription options are affordable and flexible
