Questions About Drug and Alcohol Testing.

How long does the process take to receive results from a drug or alcohol screening?

Negative rapid urine drug screen (UDS) test results are sent to the employer within one hour of the screening. In the case of a positive rapid UDS test result, the employer will be notified the same day that it has been sent to the lab.

The lab can take anywhere from three to seven business days to send results.

For standard UDS tests, a negative result may take up to three days. A positive result may take seven to ten days because the medical review officer calls the donor to verify prescriptions. The donor has five days to call the medical review officer back.

Hair test results may take between one to three business days.

Alcohol tests are reported to the employer on the same day.

What drugs are tested for?

What is the time limit to send an employee to the center for post-accident testing?

The drug test must be conducted within 32 hours of the accident, and the alcohol test within two hours of the accident. If the alcohol test is not conducted within two hours, the employer should continue to make an effort to have the driver tested for up to eight hours.

As well, the employer should prepare and maintain, on file, a record stating the reasons the test was not administered.
