random testing<\/strong><\/a> by terminals that states: If random selection is done based on locations or terminals, a two-stage selection process must be utilized. The first selection would be made by the locations and the second selection would be of those employees at the location(s) selected. The selections must ensure that each employee in the pool has an equal chance of being selected and tested, no matter where the employee is located.<\/p>\n\n\n\nOwner operators need to be in a random consortium, other FMCSA regulated employers must be in a random consortium or have a stand alone random testing pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There will be future articles about this very complex subject of random testing with all the various scenarios that can take place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There will be articles in the near future discussing the proposed drug test changes recently published by SAMHSA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
