Tired of Looking for a “Qualified SAP Near Me?”

Are you a DOT-mandated, safety-sensitive employee who has failed an alcohol or drug test? The first thing you need to do is search for “SAP near me” to begin the return-to-duty process. However, scheduling an appointment with a SAP can be arduous and you might end up having to call several providers, wait on returned calls, and cross-reference the SAP’s qualifications. Make the process easier on yourself and get in touch with SAP Referral Services (SRS). Curious about the return to duty process? Read on to learn more.

How the Return to Duty Process Works

Safety-sensitive employees who failed or refused an alcohol or drug test are not allowed to return to work unless they see a DOT-qualified Substance Abuse Professional. It’s a must to complete the return-to-duty process or you can’t return to your safety-sensitive duties. Your employer is required to provide you with a list of SAPs but it might take time to get a hold of one. This is where we come in — we can connect you with a qualified SAP near you to start the return-to-duty process.

To return to work, a Substance Abuse Professional will need to evaluate you and recommend the appropriate treatment or follow-up tests. As the employee, it’s your responsibility to comply with the return-to-duty process including any treatment and/or education recommended by your SAP. How long it takes depends on the SAP’s recommendation.

Once you complete the recommended treatment and/or education you will see your Substance Abuse Professional for a follow-up evaluation. If they determine you have complied they will refer you to submit to a return to duty drug and/or alcohol test. If you provide a negative result your SAP will clear you to return to safety-sensitive work. There will also be unannounced drug tests in the first few months after you return to work.

Do take note that your alcohol or drug testing results will be forwarded to your employer as required by law. If you fail to comply, you will not be able to get back to any safety-sensitive work.
