Additional Substance Abuse Services

Employers today require choices in their substance abuse testing methods. NDIs many years of experience in this industry and knowledge of all available products on the market allows for a vast array of services to be offered.

Urine testing - There are several testing methodologies used to assess substance abuse. The most common testing methodology to assess substance abuse is an analysis of a urine specimen. Urine testing can identify the presence of drugs from 2 to 30 days after use depending on the drug used and the frequency of use.

Hair testing - Hair testing is the most effective method of analysis when assessing history of drug use. Hair sampling can detect drug use for at least 30 and up to 90 days and does not indicate level of impairment at the time of collection. Like urine sampling, hair sampling is not particularly invasive-however the analysis can be much more expensive than traditional urine testing.

Oral fluid - Oral fluid drug screening is gaining popularity due to the ease of specimen collection, lack of opportunity for adulteration, and it's comparability with traditional urine testing accuracy and turn around time.

On-site - The ease and efficiency of on-site drug screening devices makes them appealing to employers testing Non-DOT employees. NDI strategically partners with a manufacturer of a FDA approved non-instrumented on-site drug-screening device with an accuracy ratio in excess of 99%. Incorporating a highly accurate testing system with review by a certified MRO provides the highest level of accuracy and defensibility possible for on-site testing while achieving the fastest turn around time available.

Alcohol testing services - NDI has knowledge of DOT regulations to better assist our clients in developing their alcohol testing programs. Our programs are designed to ensure compliance with the DOT Alcohol Testing Regulations and to smoothly and efficiently operate within specific client requirements.

"When we discovered we had a substance abuse problem we approached NDI to develop a testing program for our distribution center. During the first 6 months of their program, we had a significant decrease in forklift accidents and a 25% reduction in workman's compensation claims. 8 months later we asked NDI to implement an additional pre-employment substance abuse program. NDI advised us to add a 120-day probationary period for all new hires. It's been a tremendous success. Our turnover declined from 70% to 40% annually and accidents and thefts declined significantly."
