Curb Workplace Violence with Random Alcohol and Drug Testing


Recent Acts of Workplace Violence:

Minneapolis sign-making business .
Empire State Building shootings in New York City.
A supermarket in Old Bridge, New Jersey.

Protect your firm and your staff by initiating random drug testing and alcohol screenings within your workplace substance abuse testing program.  Having a well understood substance abuse testing policy in the workplace is a solid deterrent that will greatly enhance workplace safety. Obviously, employees who know about their employer's testing policy most likely won't violate it and risk losing their income - Especially with the unemployment rate and the economy the way it is right now. Prospective employees should also be made aware of all drug testing policies during the interview process in order to "weed" out potential abusers before they enter the workplace. A "Drug Free Workplace" policy will ensure workplace production and worker safety as well as deter negligent hiring and violence. When looking for a solid drug testing program administrator, be sure to choose an experienced professional Substance Abuse Testing firm such as Mobile Medical Corporation (MMC) who has been in the industry for over 15 years.

A study published earlier this year by Columbia University researchers found marijuana contributed to 12 percent of traffic deaths in 2010.
