DOT Drug Testing for Commercial Drivers

What is DOT Testing?

Unlike standard workplace testing, DOT testing has specific requirements for:

  • Medical Review Officer (MRO) review
  • Clearinghouse reporting
  • Specific 5-panel drug test (no variations)

Had a DOT Violation?

If you've had a positive drug test, refused a test, or violated DOT drug and alcohol regulations, you must complete the return-to-duty process before resuming safety-sensitive duties.
