Non-DOT Testing
Quick Screens (CLIA Waived/FDA Approved/Laboratory Accurate) – Various Panel Drugs Available
North Carolina State Law for CURRENT Employees:
Controlled Substance Examination Regulation Act, N.C. Gen. Stat. § 95-230 et seq
Samples may be collected on-site but MUST BE SENT to an approved laboratory for the screening test.
NO QUICK SCREENS on pre-existing employees. Quick screens only allowed on pre-hires.
Laboratory Confirmation & MRO Review on Non-Negative Quick Screen Devices
Before You Hire, Inc. uses a SAMHSA certified laboratory with GC/MS results.
*All reports and results provided by Before You Hire, Inc. are held in the strictest of confidence along with being in compliance with all HIPPA laws and regulations.
MRO Report (Medical Review Officer):
MRO reviews can be ordered as needed on NON-DOT positive results. The MRO will determine if it is a RX drug, an illegal drug, or a non-RX that will result in a positive. The MRO will actually call the donor to ask a series of questions to determine the results, which are confirmed legal, and the final report of the drug test.

Random Drug Testing Programs
While screening your employees through the pre-hire stage, it is a VITAL component to maintain an ongoing random program. You can custom fit your random testing program to your needs and your schedule. BYH will accommodate any shifts. The positivity rate for random drug tests is 47% HIGHER than pre-employment drug tests!
Here are a few surprising statistics:
