I was observed during Pre-Emp Urine test

Under the DOT urine collection guidelines, females cannot observe males and males cannot observe females even if their nurses or MD's.

 

If you don't do drugs, what does it matter?

 

That's crazy,absolute zero privacy in this industry.I wonder if they observe non cdl holders I doubt it.Don't they do the same thing to jailbirds?

 

You know what would even be worse? If they actually asked to hold the pee cup for you!

 

This is what I keep finding

"Under Texas and federal laws, there is almost no limitation at all on the right of private employers to adopt drug and alcohol testing policies for their workers."

I can't find anything that specifically says what you're describing. It may just be a company policy for the company that you applied at though it seems kind of extreme.

Drug Testing in the Workplace

 

well then, maybe your employer has it in THIER rules that one must be observed.

OR, it could be the policy of the test site to observe, to insure no doctoring of the sample?

so frankly, your employer should have told you. your beef is with your employer from this point, not the collection site.

 

Here, let me............
