Pre-Employment Drug Testing
Pre-employment drug testing is one of the most important times to perform drug tests. Why? Because right from the start, you can eliminate potential new employees who have drug problems. Imagine the time and money spent to train a new employee; only to find out they have a drug addiction. They could start showing up late for work, if they show up at all. With the symptoms of drug addiction, they are a danger to your employees and possibly customers.

You can do this onsite with speed and accuracy; thus, cutting down on the time it takes to get results. So, what do you need to do to make this a part of your hiring practice?
