Leave Urine Testing Behind: Cut Ties With Costly Collection Sites
Historically, lab-based urine testing was a standard method for drug screening. Today, we have better options for a far more efficient program. But first, let’s look at how things go when the traditional process includes coordination with an external collection site.
Collection Sites Delay Workflow
Collection sites face roadblocks at every turn, from coordination to waiting days for results. When the hiring process requires candidates to provide a urine sample at a collection site, it generally results in heightened attrition from no shows and denied offers. Along with that, the process decreases productivity for associates involved in coordinating off-site drug screening.
The few candidates that do show up to report for testing often face stressful, lengthy wait times just to provide their sample for screening. Upon completion, the result is not available for 2-5 days. By this point, candidates may have found other opportunities and are no longer available for employment. The days-long collection site process then becomes a complete loss of time, money and other valuable company resources.
Privacy and Adulteration
Urine testing requires the privacy of a closed-door restroom. This collection is highly susceptible to many tampering methods with intent to pass the drug screen. Adulteration is so common in closed-door urine sample collections, it is supported by thousands of products purchased by test subjects to pass drug tests via substitution, dilution, additives, etc.
Substitution is as simple as providing someone or something else’s urine for the test. Thousands of products online, including artificial urine kits, have made this easy to do.
Dilution is as free and easy as consuming a large amount of liquid - simply water or juice to dilute the drug concentration before providing a urine sample for the test. Anyone can do it.
Placing additives that will interfere with urine test results is a popular trend. This may come in the form of tablets, bleach, and other products used that alter the test result.
