Ridgeline,
You might want to check your reading comprehension skills. I never said I was worried about getting sued by the driver. -
I appreciate everyone's replies.
I really do.
This is new for me, though I have been a company owner for 12 years.
I am waiting on a call back from the MRO.
The MRO sent me pdf files of both the original form that he signed and the 2nd form that he did not sign....where he was supposed to be observed. The lady at Concentra told him that he had to re-submit while being observed and he hauled ##&.
I do, in fact, have to decide to report or not report to the clearing house.
Concentra has already reported him to the DOT.
The potential driver has not contacted me and it sucks.
More than likely I will report.
'88k100....I hear ya....I am concerned about that but what's right is right.
I have decided that what I will do in the future is have a potential candidate pay for his or her own drug test and then reimburse them for it on a negative result.
I don't care about the money but it's just crappy that he would try to pull this over on anyone.
He is in the wind. I am sure that he has already looked up what his leaving meant to his record. -
@Moose1958 You haven't chimed in here on your understanding about this.

bryan21384 and Roberts450 Thank this.

Cattleman84, T.Rucker and ZVar Thank this.

He attempted a test and violated standards and bailed on the REQUIRED observed re-test which I believe is beyond the 'pre employment' walk away. I'm sure Concentra has reported this; if they are your MRO, you gave them authority to do so...
-
Yes, it is in the past.
Even if we wanted to give the guy a free pass (and we don't) it wouldn't matter.
When you refuse a monitored test after a temperature discrepancy at a Concentra facility, the computer automatically flags the test and sends it in to the DOT as a refusal. It is automatic. His MRO wanted confirmation of whether we agreed with the refusal classification. Whether or not we agreed with the findings of Concentra. "Yes...we agree".
That was it for us.
Thanks for chiming in. -
the urine sample will still come out at body temp, not room temp, the human body temp will not go as low as the room temp unless hypothermia was present, and then he'd be off to the hospital..
it'll ALWAYS COME OUT at body temp....NOT the surrounding room temp...
you sure you know what YOU SPEAK of? or are you a truck stop lawyer, doctor, and general know it all..???
