The Importance of DOT Drug and Alcohol Testing

In 1991, the US government passed the Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act which recognized the need for a transportation industry free of drugs and alcohol. The act requires DOT agencies to implement drug and alcohol testing of commercial drivers in order to maintain the safety of the traveling public and other workers. Anyone designated as a “safety sensitive” employee is subject to DOT drug and alcohol testing. A safety sensitive employee applies to someone who holds a job in which their actions can impact both their own safety and the safety of the public.
