We are dedicated to getting you back to work ASAP!
If you have a positive drug and/or alcohol test, refusal to test, or another violation, start the return to duty process so you can get back to work safely.
The first step is to meet with a qualified & certified Department of Transportation (DOT) Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) for a face-to-face clinical evaluation. The SAP will make recommendations to you for treatment and/or education.
The SAP provides documentation of the recommendations to the employer’s assigned in-house Designated Employer Representative (DER).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It is critical that you comply with the treatment(s) and/or educational recommendations that are given to you to be able to return to work. The SAP will serve as a referral source to assist you in finding the education and/or treatment program(s) needed. Upon completion of these processes, the SAP will conduct a face-to-face follow-up evaluation with you to determine your eligibility to be considered for return to safety-sensitive duty. It is at the employer’s discretion to decide if you are ready to return to safety-sensitive work.
The SAP provides documentation of your eligibility for a return-to-duty test in a follow-up report to the DER or to you if you are seeking employment. You MUST have a negative return-to-duty drug/alcohol test result before returning to safety-sensitive duty and then it is still at the employer’s discretion.
Be advised that you are subject to unannounced and observed follow-up testing for a period of 1 to 5 years according to the plan determined by the SAP and provided to the DER.
