Business owners and hiring managers can’t afford to take any chances with new hires, and pre-employment drug testing is a standard operating procedure at most companies. First Choice is Arkansas’ most trusted third-party administrator, and we’re ready to show you how easy it is to start a workplace drug testing program. We offer industry-leading turnaround times on all reporting and keep a Medical Review Officer (MRO) on staff to verify the accuracy of all test results. And if your company only has a few employees, consortium pool testing is a minimally invasive way to keep them honest!

A consortium pool is a group of small companies that functions as a single entity for testing purposes. Each company in the pool provides a complete employee roster, which is then entered into our random management generation program. We’ll send you automatic reminders when it’s time to update your rosters before each quarterly draw, and all employees in the pool will have an equal and independent chance to be selected. Testing takes place at our southwest Little Rock laboratory during business hours, and we’ll provide detailed instructions for your selected donors when it’s time for them to submit for testing. Our team members all share our commitment to professionalism and legendary customer service, and we can typically get donors in and out in about 15-30 minutes.

The US Department of Labor estimates that drug and alcohol use contributes to up to 65 percent of workplace accidents, and employees who use illegal recreational drugs are more likely to steal or be chronically tardy or absent. Random drug testing is a powerful incentive for your employees to stay drug-free, and no company is too small to institute a testing program. Our services also include background checks to help you thoroughly vet new applicants, and reasonable suspicion training so you and your supervisors can better understand when it’s time to test an employee that you suspect is under the influence. Setting up a testing account only takes a few minutes, and we’re always a phone call away if you have any questions!
