Fast, Non-Invasive Employee Testing
Oral-fluid drug testing eliminates many of the logistical challenges associated with urine collections. Collections are quick, observed, and non-invasive, helping municipalities conduct testing with greater efficiency and professionalism.
A saliva sample is typically collected in 30–90 seconds, with preliminary results available in as little as 5 minutes.
Observed Collection & Reduced Tampering Risk
Because oral-fluid collections are conducted under direct observation, they help reduce opportunities for tampering while supporting stronger chain-of-custody practices.
This makes saliva testing especially valuable for municipalities that require documented and defensible procedures for:
- Pre-employment screening
- Random employee testing
- Reasonable suspicion testing
- Post-accident and incident testing
- Return-to-duty programs
- Drug-free workplace initiatives
