If you’re in the Human Resources profession, you probably spend a lot of time wondering what your prospective employees aren’t including on their resumes. If they don’t have anything to hide, they might simply be leaving irrelevant experience out to make their resumes easier to review quickly. But if they left a job under questionable circumstances they’re going to gloss over that part of their career on their resume. Sometimes they’re just going to leave it off entirely.
First Choice was started in 2006 by 3 registered nurses who wanted to create a comprehensive testing center that focused on providing legendary customer service. We perform drug screening collections, lab based and instant testing, and breath alcohol testing. All of our employees are trained and certified in DOT collection procedures and we have an MRO on staff to authenticate all lab results.
Many clients like the convenience of instant drug testing devices. When properly used, they can be a great tool to make a hiring decision quickly as negatives are reported the same day and over 90% of all drug tests are negative.
Drug abuse is an epidemic in our society with no end in sight. It leads to premature deaths, and it tears families apart. As an employer, you have a fiduciary responsibility to your employees and your clients to maintain a safe and drug-free workplace. Employees under the influence of drugs are statistically more likely to miss work, steal, or be involved in a workplace accident. A pre-employment screening is standard procedure for most high stakes jobs, and a random screening program is an effective way to protect your investment in your employees on a long-term basis. Many companies also provide health care benefits and assistance for employees who are struggling with drug and alcohol programs.
