How does my employer get away with this

Was the car that smashed into you towed away?
If so they are required to by law to drug test you. How do you know they don’t drug test people? By law they can’t announce who they drug test, it would violate hippa laws.

 

Woe be unto any carrier, OTR or local that employs CDL drivers that don't randomly test. The FMCSA, as well as an attorney after an accident, will have that carrier for dinner! I suspect they are testing, you just can't see it!

 

They probably are testing but maybe they just test a couple of the same drivers over and over because they don't mind doing it and they know they are clean. Maybe they get a bonus for doing it.

One thing that I do know for sure is that my company tells us at orientation that they test 10 or 20% of the drivers every single month. That should mean that I would be tested every 5-10 months. I've gone through the orientation 4 times because it is required every time you take a month or longer vacation and in 5+ years I've only ever been tested at orientation.

Mathematics says that I should have been tested randomly at least 4 or up to 12 times already yet somehow it hasn't happened a single time.

I'm not going to complain about it though.

 

Been driving for two years, two months, since this journey began, I’ve had seven drug tests. One upon entering school, selected for a random while in school, one for first perspective job at orientation, twice. I did not take those jobs so I moved onto the next place where I work now and they of course drug tested me as well. At then pulled in for a random. SEVEN times in 26 months.

 

I get picked for a random about every 2 years. Get paid for the time spent doing it too.

 

you do not know any of this as a fact. you have been here constantly griping about your employer from day #1, and still continue to do so.

some companies the same people are randomly tested. at my former employer where i retired from? i was randomly tested like 2 times in 5-6 years.

i can't wait to read all about your gripes at your new employer.

You got so much to learn.
I've worked for these bottom of barrel companies
A long time ago. When I had no other choice.
We we're all bottom of the barrel drivers
For one reason or another.

Yea, drivers got high.
The owner,who didn't pay enough to get good
Drivers, knew who got high and who didn't.

So he would random the ones he knew would
Past the test.
The ones he knew did drugs would get a phone
Call from him, and he'd tell them they had to do
A random drug test.
But it would be 2 months from now.
Giving them plenty of time to clean out.

Now that's old school stuff.
But it's done more than you think.
Usually at small 10 to 20 truck operations.

You just worry about yourself.
It's his business,he can hire whoever he wants
And run it anyway he wants.

 

Getting good at doing drug tests, had 2 in 3 months. Both random. No problem, now it is with the virus,
