<li>Raise awareness in employees through a well-planned written drug-free workplace policy and establishment of an <a href="/resources/glossary/define-employee-assistance-program-substance-abuse-professionals-eap-sap">Employee Assistance Program (<abbr title="Employee Assistance Program / Employee Assistance Program Services">EAP</abbr>)</a>.</li>
<li>Educate supervisors and managers in methods of drug detection and deterrence through regular training.</li>
<li>Advertise that drug tests are performed on every employee. Drug users tend to avoid companies that do routine drug testing.</li>
<li>Perform pre-employment drug and alcohol testing on new hires and as a condition of employment.</li>
<li>Drug test employees whenever &#8220;reasonable suspicion&#8221; is indicated and legally allowed.</li>
<li>Perform random, on-site specimen collections on 50% of your employee base annually. This greatly reinforces the odds against intentionally adulterated drug tests.</li>
<li>Insure that on-site employee drug testing cheaters don’t have an opportunity to adulterate specimens by: making donors wash their hands before giving a specimen so that adulterants cannot be concealed under the fingernails; removing soaps and other possible adulterants from collection site; not allowing employees to &#8220;go to the locker room&#8221; or anywhere outside the collection site; not allowing coats, handbags or any other possible way to conceal adulterants in the collection area.</li>
<li>Perform <a href="https://drugtestingace.com/resources/glossary/define-saliva-drug-testing">Saliva Drug Testing</a> in addition to or as an alternative to urine testing. <a href="https://drugtestingace.com/resources/glossary/define-saliva-drug-testing">Oral Fluid Drug Testing</a> is done on site and face to face with the donor, making it difficult to alter or adulterate employee drug testing specimens, as well as being the most non-invasive employment drug testing collection and detection method.</li>
<li>Utilize <a href="https://drugtestingace.com/resources/drug-testing-confirmation-and-mro-services">Confirmation</a> drug testing of employee drug screening specimens that are positive by a certified lab and the services of a licensed <a href="/resources/glossary/define-medical-review-officer-mro">Medical Review Officer (<abbr title="Medical Review Officer">MRO</abbr>)</a>.</li>
<li>Know your employees. Direct observation is one of the best deterrents to employee substance abuse.</li>
