4 What is the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program?
5 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program Safety is the #1 priority of the U.S. Department of Transportation. A cornerstone of their safety policy is ensuring that transportation providers across all modes employ workers who are drug- and alcohol-free while performing safety sensitive duties: roads, rails, water, or in the air, over land and underground
6 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program The transportation industry has worked hard to reduce the number of accidents and crashes directly related to drug and alcohol use. Human risk factors remain some transportation workers do use illicit drugs or abuse alcohol, despite serious efforts to deter them.
7 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program 49 Code of Federal Regulations (C.F.R.) 40 First published in 1988 and finally implemented in 1990 Adopted from The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug Testing set scientific and technical standards for drug testing for federal employees and for federal certification of drug testing laboratories.
8 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program The Guidelines established the legality of and procedures for removing employees from safety-sensitive duties immediately after they violate drug and alcohol testing rules. Removed employees are not permitted to return to safetysensitive duty until they are referred for evaluation and have successfully complied with treatment recommendations.
9 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program They give an employee who works in a DOT covered safety-sensitive position the opportunity to return to that safety-sensitive position once compliance to an SAP s recommendations has been documented. This gives the recovery community additional validation that individuals can be in recovery from substance use disorders and re-enter the workplace as productive, vital employees.
10 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program The Guidelines contain procedures for: collecting urine specimens analyzing the specimens establishing classes of drugs of abuse implementing a physician review of the drug test results, called medical review officers (MROs) evaluation, referral and return-to-duty services by the Substance Abuse Professional (SAP)
11 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program The regulations cover all 6 operating administrations under the DOT: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Federal Motor Carriers Safety Administration (FMCSA) Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) United States Coast Guard (USCG)
12 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program Then each operating administration defined: the safety-sensitive positions within their respective administrations acceptable reasons for testing the circumstances that mandate testing following an accident or incident who is authorized to require the testing of an employee how the test must be conducted
13 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program 6 reasons for conducting a drug and/or alcohol test under the DOT regulations: Applicant/Pre-Employment Testing Post-Accident/Incident Testing Random Testing Reasonable Cause/Suspicion Testing Return-to-Duty Testing Follow-Up Testing
14 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program 6 substances tested for under the DOT regulations: amphetamines cocaine marijuana opiates phencyclidine (PCP) alcohol
15 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program The primary safety objective of the DOT regulations is to prevent, through deterrence and detection, alcohol and controlled substance users from performing transportation industry safety-sensitive functions. The regulations were not expected to be able to abolish drug use in the workplace due to the limitations of a drug test. The goal of the testing process is to convince employees not to use drugs due to risk of possible job loss.
16 Overview of the DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Program Current DOT regulations are accessible through the Department of Transportation s website, (click on Drug and Alcohol Testing Regulations) or requested by phone at
17 What is an SAP?
18 What is an SAP? A Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) is a trained professional that evaluates employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol regulation and makes recommendations to an employer concerning education, treatment, follow-up testing and continuing care.
19 What is an SAP? As an SAP, you elect to have a special relationship and bond with everyone the employee will encounter if that employee returns to the performance of safety-sensitive duties. Traveling Public = kids, moms, dads, boyfriends, girlfriends, wives, husbands, partners, close friends, acquaintances, strangers, co-workers, neighbors and many others.
20 What is an SAP? SAP function = protect the public interest in safety by professionally evaluating the employee and recommending appropriate education and/or treatment, follow-up tests, and continuing education. An SAP operates as a gatekeeper of the return-to-duty process and provides an important service to the employee, the employer and to the traveling public. In your counseling work, you view the person walking through your door as your client. As an SAP, the public is now your client, too.
21 What is an SAP? SAPs represent the major decision point (and in some cases the only decision point) an employer may have in choosing whether or not to place an employee: behind the steering wheel of a school bus in the cockpit of a plane at the helm of an oil tanker at the throttle of a train in the engineer compartment of a subway car at the emergency control valves of a natural gas pipeline Your responsibility to the public is enormous!
22 What is an SAP? SAPs are responsible for several duties important to the evaluation, referral and treatment of employees identified through breath and urinalysis testing as being: positive for alcohol and/or controlled substance use, who refuse to be tested or who have violated other provisions of the DOT rules.
23 What Does an SAP Do? 1) Fundamental responsibility = to provide a comprehensive face-toface assessment and clinical evaluation to determine what level of assistance the employee needs in resolving problems associated with alcohol use or prohibited drug use. 2) After this assessment, the SAP must recommend a course of education and/or treatment with which the employee must comply prior to returning to DOT safety-sensitive duty.
24 What Does an SAP Do? Treatment recommendations can include, but are not limited to: in-patient treatment partial in-patient treatment intensive out-patient treatment out-patient treatment education programs continuing care Education recommendations can include, but are not limited to: bona fide drug and alcohol education courses self-help groups community lectures
25 What Does an SAP Do? Upon the determination of the best recommendation for assistance, you will serve as a referral source to assist the employee's entry into an acceptable program. Prior to the employee's return to safety-sensitive duties, you are required to provide a face-to-face follow-up evaluation with the employee to determine if the individual has demonstrated successful compliance with recommendations of the initial evaluation and has made appropriate clinical progress sufficient to return to duty.
26 What Does an SAP Do? SAPs also develop and direct a follow-up testing plan for the employee returning to work following successful compliance. SAPs specify the number and frequency of the follow-up tests. The employer is then responsible for ensuring that the individual is tested according to the plan.
27 What Does an SAP Do? There are times when an employee will need continuing assistance with an alcohol or drug problem even if the employee is ready to return to work. At these times, you will provide the employee and employer with your recommendations for continuing care.
28 Other Important SAP Information Note: Employers are not required to provide an SAP evaluation or any subsequent recommended education or treatment for an employee. However, if the employer offers the employee an opportunity to return to DOT safety-sensitive duty, the employer must ensure that the employee goes through the entire return-to-duty process that includes successful compliance with the SAP s recommendations. Payment is left for employers and employees to decide and may be determined by existing management-labor agreements, employer policies or health care benefits.
