The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) aims to maintain the safest, most efficient, and most modern transportation system in the world. To support this goal, USDOT requires employees to follow its drug and alcohol regulations. Employees who violate these rules risk losing their jobs.
SAP evaluations are a great way to help employees return to their safety-sensitive duties after a violation has occurred. They are administered by certified substance abuse professionals with the intention of evaluating an employee in order to determine whether there is a substance abuse problem present.
These assessments help employers decide whether an employee who violated DOT regulations can safely continue working in a public service role. School bus drivers, train operators, and airplane pilots carry significant responsibility for public safety. Employers need an accurate, detailed assessment through SAP evaluations to make informed decisions.
