    We use Blueline Services for our administration.  For new hires we only test safety-sensitive and CDL drivers.  We have an occupational clinic that handles the collection for us.  For our random tests, Blueline sends a tech to our facility.  They run our reports and filings on the DOT site which is a plus.  They also monitor our testing percentages for DOT.  For safety-sensitive randoms, it varies and is honestly often based on where we are running in the budget with new hire and DOT random testing.  Also check on the Utah law for drug testing of public employees.  Be sure to look up the Utah Code for drug testing of government employees.  The code requires that testing of government employees be split sample urine testing.  Title 34, Chapter 41.  Here's a link to the state's authorized testing method.   https://le.utah.gov/xcode/Title34/Chapter41/34-41-S103.html

    We use CODA, they can do the testing on-site or in the office. I love their service and they do a great job.  Unfortunately DOT hasn't approved swabs yet (as far as I know) but we do use them for our public safety randoms.  For DOT we don't get to choose how many are pulled, that is determined by DOT (see attached).

    We use WorkMed for our drug testing.

    Our vendor, OHCI, now uses oral mouth swabs, which we ship off via FedEx and get the results in the same amount of time as sending employees to an office in Orem for urine analysis. It's so much easier. 

    I also collected bids from Victig, Simpliverified, and others if you want more info. There may be vendors at Utah WECon in 2 weeks in Ogden as well.

    We currently send people to our local hospital for pre-employment drug testing, but they are outsourcing to an outside vendor. What vendor do you use? Or do you use the same hospital process. 

    Thanks.
