Most Common Drug Test for Employment or School
What are the most common drug tests for employment or school?
It's a common practice for companies to require a pre-employment drug screen for new hires. Some companies may also carry our random drug screens or require post-accident testing. The purpose of these tests is usually to help enforce zero-tolerance workplace drug policies, to meet health and safety requirements, or comply with insurance providers. Students entering medical school or nursing programs may also need to pass a drug test. There are a variety of drug testing options available. Urine testing is the most common by far but screening for other specimens such as hair, blood, and saliva are also available. The number of drugs that need to be tested will vary depending on the organization. For pre-employment testing, a standard 5-panel urine drug test that looks for marijuana, cocaine, amphetamines, opiates, and phencyclidine (PCP) is customary. Some companies may require something more comprehensive such as a 10-panel urine test which looks for a larger selection of drug metabolites. Students in healthcare fields sometimes need to take medical professional drug panels such as an 11-panel urine test or a 12-panel urine test due to the variety of drugs and medications they will have access to in the workplace. In all cases, it is a good idea to check with the organization requesting the test to help ensure you are meeting their specific requirements.
