Do You Need Drug and Alcohol Counseling for a Failed DOT Drug Test?
If you fail a DOT drug and alcohol test you may be required to seek drug and alcohol counseling by going through the SAP process. If you are a DOT regulated employee and work in a safety sensitive position, in the public transit, trucking, aviation, maritime, railroad or pipeline industries and have violated a DOT drug and alcohol testing regulation you must see a DOT qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP). This means the SAP is required to have specialized training, credentialing and continuing education. The SAP must also follow specific rules and regulations regarding recommended education and/or treatment facilities.
