The test is performed using an evidential breath testing device (EBT). For DOT testing, the Evidential Breath Testing (EBT) device must be on the NHTSA conforming products list (CPL) for evidential devices and are the only devices you may use to conduct alcohol confirmation tests under DOT regulation 49 CFR Part 40.\u00a0The testing is performed by a qualified breath alcohol technician commonly called a BAT technician. This is an accurate test. An initial screening test is performed and at a positive level of .02 or above, a second confirmation test is performed after 15 minutes.\n<br\/><br\/>\nTypically a 0.04 breath alcohol level or above is a positive for workplace testing. At 0.02 an employee is sent home not to return back to work until the next day. The levels of 0.02 or higher show recent consumption of alcohol, a level of 0.04 or above shows impairment.\n<br\/><br\/>\nBreath alcohol testing is performed on employees in both DOT and Non-DOT programs. For DOT programs the DOT Alcohol Testing Form is used to record the results of the testing. For Non-DOT testing, the Non-DOT alcohol testing form is used for recording the results of testing. For any breath alcohol testing, the BAT technician should immediately call the employer representative (DER) as soon as a confirmed positive result is recorded.\n<br\/><br\/>\nDOT does also allow a saliva test for alcohol for the initial alcohol screening test only.  An approved device must be used. If positive for the alcohol saliva test, a confirmation test using a Evidential Breath Testing (EBT) device must be used and be completed 15 minutes later.  \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4abca8d elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-box\" data-id=\"4abca8d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-icon-box-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span  >\n\t\t\t\t\t\tOral Fluid Alcohol Test Panel\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-icon-box-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tSome laboratories are offering an oral fluid test for Ethyl Alcohol.

Urine alcohol testing is prohibited for DOT drug and alcohol testing programs. For all employers, National Drug Screening strongly recommends against urine ethanol testing of applicants or employees. The test does not measure current consumption or current impairment. This is a legal drug that employees can consume after work hours. The urine alcohol test for ethanol can also produce \u201cfalse positives\u201d for individuals with certain medical conditions (e.g., diabetes) and fail to provide adequate quantitative levels for reporting.\n<br\/><br\/>\nThe Alcohol (Ethanol) urine test looks for recent use of alcohol. Alcohol is typically detectable in the urine for several hours up to 24 hours. The length of time alcohol can be detectable varies by person depending on factors such as metabolism, activity level during and after alcohol consumption and how much food was consume. The biggest issue with urine alcohol testing is you might get a positive from someone who had some wine with dinner the evening before the at work test.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-01964f3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-box\" data-id=\"01964f3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-content\">\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-icon-box-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<span  >\n\t\t\t\t\t\tETG Alcohol Test Urine Panel\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-icon-box-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAn <a href = \"https:\/\/www.nationaldrugscreening.com\/product\/alcohol-etg-hair-test\/\">EtG test <\/a>advantage is that EtG remains in the body long after all the alcohol is gone.

The 1.5 inch sample of about 200 strands of hair (about the size of a #2 pencil) closest to the scalp will give 100mg of hair, the ideal sample for screening and confirmation.\n<br\/><br\/>\nThe ETG test for hair should not be used for a workplace test unless the individual is in a zero tolerance alcohol treatment program. ETG alcohol testing with hair is often used in legal and court cases as well as child custody cases to determine an individual is not consuming alcohol.

In fact the individual being tested may have has a few drinks over the weekend and test positive on a urine alcohol test on Monday. Did they violate any company policy \u2013 most likely the answer is NO. It is important to utilize breath alcohol testing to determine impairment or prohibited use of alcohol. A positive urine alcohol test is not indicative of alcohol impairment nor does it definitively indicate beverage alcohol consumption. Individuals that are diabetic and have a bacterial infection can have fermentation and show positive on a urine-ethanol test which would never be a violation of company policy. National Drug Screening strongly recommends against urine ethanol testing of applicants or employees.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-812002e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"812002e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">When to Use Alcohol Testing<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-414f4ce e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"414f4ce\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;full&quot;,&quot;container_type&quot;:&quot;flex&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-102d63a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"102d63a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;content_width&quot;:&quot;full&quot;,&quot;container_type&quot;:&quot;flex&quot;}\" data-core-v316-plus=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c547dd2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c547dd2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>For employers, the best time to perform alcohol testing is when you have reasonable suspicion that a worker is impaired or intoxicated and also for post-accident testing. For either situation, call out a tester to perform the testing or bring the individual to the clinic for the alcohol testing. You do not want to let this person drive when there is the possibility they are intoxicated. Safety first, but always test when you have reasonable suspicion. You need the documentation of the test results in case there is any adverse action to take. Always document everything very carefully.<br \/>National Drug Screening has available drug and alcohol specialists for your alcohol testing needs.
