I think these "random" tests are actually biased to select women and old men. They are the drivers least likely to fail a drug test and screw up the company's SAFER score.

My company requires all employees get randomly tested every quarter.
@adamcrealestate3 ай бұрын
I've been tested only once in 2 years but it's still frustrating because it takes too much time time off my rest time. I drive 3250 miles a week. Who has time to use drugs? Not me. If they tested me every quarter I would need psych meds to deal with it. Lol ❤

Before I retired, the transportation department of my company's computer spit out a list of which employees would be tested each day. Completely random. In addition, any reported injury from a cut on your finger to severed limb would subject you to a test. As well as any reported accident in the truck or on the dock. And the "Great Equalizer"...suspicion on the part of anyone on the management team! Maybe they choose you guys because they know you will test clean and their numbers will look good.

Trucking industry, truck driving is a very serious business for all sorts of reasons and one of them is yes it is important that truck drivers should take a drug test every once a year but some of us take it after every two years depending on their medical status.

I work for the same company as you. Patrick knows me as the guy with the mask. I have been tested as much as once a month for four months in a row or as few as once in a year. It varies and doesn't pick on anyone because of age, race or the way you look.

some jobs in the military require a yearly drug test...shouldn't worry if you and your husband don't do drugs. Sometimes it's just part of the job, just have to live with it.

Safety purposes and I agree with one comment about the drivers that probably are least likely to fail the drug test so the company has a nice safety record but in the meantime the computer spits out random names for drug testing now there were times I didn't get drug tested for a year straight and there are some people that got drug tested every 3 months there's an explanation for it but I don't know if we will ever get a straight answer of how it really works but I do believe their safety record has a lot to do with it because I think they get a kickback money-wise from insurance

Before I retired out of commercial driving I used to get tested all the time, their time and money.....they can waste their money however they want. When I was in the Military we were tested constantly, I'm sure you are not being tested anywhere near as much as we were.

It means you can be tested at any point during the quarter. So you could actually test in March AND April. That would be one test in each quarter.

The last company I worked for I got drug tested once each months May, June, and July I don’t believe this is random because how do I go five years working at this company and then get no drug testing random but all of a sudden once each month This felt like I was trying to be framed. Ain’t no way in the world I would hit the lottery like this. And these drug testing things are stupid because they drug test you and you can jump in the vehicle and drive off until you get the results. That doesn’t make any sense at all. Whether you pass or fail, no one knows until the results. Meanwhile of person is still on the road. And the blood pressure thing is a big scam just like the sleep apnea.

If it's your company doing all this testing I'm not sure there is anything you can do about it. How this is determined is by computer and it's supposed to be random except that a certain percentage of drivers must be tested annually. When I drove I was rarely selected for drug screening. I reckon it's the luck of the draw. You might talk to your safety person but I doubt there's anything they can or will do.
