What Is Urine Drug Testing?
Urine drug testing is the most widely accepted method for
detecting recent drug use. For DOT-regulated testing, urine
testing is the federally recognized standard method used under
U.S. Department of Transportation rules.
goMDnow provides both DOT and non-DOT urine drug testing programs
for transportation employers, owner-operators, construction
companies, staffing agencies, healthcare employers, manufacturers,
and other safety-sensitive workplaces.
DOT vs Non-DOT Urine Drug Testing
DOT urine drug testing must follow strict federal collection,
chain-of-custody, laboratory, and MRO review requirements. It is
commonly used for pre-employment, random, post-accident,
reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty, and follow-up testing.
Non-DOT urine drug testing is based on an employer’s workplace
policy and may include different panels, substances, or testing
reasons depending on company requirements and applicable state
law.
5-Panel and 10-Panel Testing
The DOT urine test is a 5-panel test screening
for the federally required drug categories. Non-DOT employers may
choose 5-panel, 10-panel, or customized configurations based on
industry risk and workplace policy.
DOT 5-Panel (federally required)
- Marijuana (THC)
- Cocaine
- Opiates (codeine, morphine, heroin)
- Amphetamines (including methamphetamine)
- Phencyclidine (PCP)
Non-DOT 10-Panel additions
- Barbiturates
- Benzodiazepines
- Methadone
- Methaqualone
- Propoxyphene
goMDnow supports both 5-panel and 10-panel configurations for DOT
and non-DOT programs. All DOT drug test results are reviewed by a
certified Medical Review Officer (MRO) before
being reported to the employer.
Common Reasons for Testing
Urine testing is commonly used for pre-employment screening,
random testing, post-accident testing, reasonable suspicion
testing, periodic testing, return-to-duty testing, follow-up
testing, and drug-free workplace programs.
