Connect with a Qualified SAP Professional

DOT mandated safety-sensitive employees are required to undergo both random and required post-accident drug and alcohol testing in certain scenarios. Therefore, if you run a transportation business you may find yourself in need of a SAP provider for one of your employees. If one of your employees fails or refuses to take a drug and/or alcohol test, it is your responsibility to refer them to a SAP professional. At SAP Referral Services we maintain a list of thousands of qualified SAPs. Partnering with us makes finding a qualified SAP professional much easier. Please read on to see how we work with both employers and employees to ease the return-to-duty process.

Why Does the DOT Require Alcohol and Drug Testing?

In 1991 Congress recognized that it is vital for the transportation industry to be drug and alcohol-free for the safety of everyone on the road. They passed the Omnibus Transportation Employee Testing Act, requiring all transportation agencies within the DOT to implement regular drug and alcohol testing. Additionally, there is a process in place for all DOT mandated safety-sensitive employees regulating the steps they must undergo before they are allowed to return to duty following a violation or failure of DOT drug and/or alcohol testing.

Find a SAP Professional Quickly

If you are a DOT mandated safety-sensitive employee and you failed or refused a drug and/or test you cannot return to safety-sensitive duties until you complete a program outlined by a SAP professional. However, if you use SRS (SAP Referral Services), you can quickly sign up for FastTrack Enrollment and typically be scheduled with a SAP provider within three business days. In most cases, partnering with SRS is the fastest way to connect with a SAP professional so you can get back on the job.

Partner with SAP Referral Services

Outside of a shorter time to connect with your SAP, when you use SAP Referral Services you are guaranteed that the SAP is fully qualified at the time of your initial evaluation. Oftentimes lists and credentials get outdated. Therefore, if you schedule your own appointment you risk using a SAP that is not qualified under the DOT guidelines. Unfortunately, that appointment and possibly any treatment completed will not be accepted and you will need to repeat the process.
