DOT Alcohol Testing

DOT Alcohol Testing for Regulated Employers

HireRight’s DOT alcohol testing service was designed specifically for DOT regulated employers. DOT alcohol test product offerings include: random, post-accident, reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty, and follow-up.

Saliva or breath tests can be used for screening. Alcohol test results less than 0.02 alcohol concentration is considered negative. If the alcohol concentration is greater than 0.02, a second confirmation test is conducted using a DOT-approved Evidential Breath Test Device (EBT) and will be the final result reported.  HireRight will provide you with a copy of the complete report and a document image of the actual alcohol test result form with final results. 

Key Benefits
