Subject: Re: [MCOH-EH] Pre-placement Drug testing and when to consider again

 

Hello to all who perform pre-placement drug testing:

 

We started doing pre-placement drug testing last year and our policy does not address (intentionally) when a candidate can reapply for a job. The staffing partners are asked this by the candidates all the time. I personally feel that this should be addressed. I wanted to get a sense for this group on how you address this issue.

 

At other institutions where I have worked the policies ranged from 6 months to a year.

 

Thanks,

Phil
