Everything that is in excess is harmful. The same is true with so-called recreational drugs. The Department of Transportation (DOT) mandates that SAP Evaluation each employee in a safety-sensitive position. The DOT itself updates the regulations. As a result, any person with a commercial driver's license (CDL) must submit to testing for:
- Pre-employment,
- Post-accident,
- In presence of reasonable suspicion, and
- Drug and Alcohol tests under Return-to-duty (RTD)
The Department of Transportation has legitimately ordered this procedure.
The goal of the SAP Evaluation is to guarantee that workers doing case-sensitive tasks are both physically and psychologically fit for work-related activities. Any person who tests positive for using drugs or alcohol is sent to SAP for assessment. He can only resume his duties after completing the (RTD-Return To Duty) procedure outlined by the DOT in order to combat the violence caused by drug and alcohol addiction.
SAP is a user in the clearinghouse and must register in order to perform assessments.
If the scenario is the same, you should schedule your appointment as soon as you can in order to be eligible for the RTD procedure and return to your employment.
The following steps are included in SAP Evaluation:
- Medical examination
This stage aids SAP in determining whether the subject of the evaluation has an issue. It establishes the presence or absence of underlying problems with a person's behavior or habit with a straightforward yes or no.
- Assessment:
Following the diagnosis, the patient's condition is thoroughly understood, and then a treatment plan is suggested for dealing with his aggressive character or drug misuse.
- The subsequentSAP Evaluation
The success of the patient's therapy under his care is determined by SAP. Depending on how the employee performed during the treatment program run by him, he must issue either a “Notice of Compliance” or a “Notice of Noncompliance” following the completion of the entire procedure.
- Additional therapy or educational sessions, as well as recommendations for post-care, if judged required.
- DER's final written report (Designated Employer Representative)
