DOT publishes guidance for updating drug and alcohol policies in light of recent opioid testing update

On Jan. 1, 2018, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) will expand its current panel to require testing for semi-synthetic opioids. The semi-synthetic drugs that must be tested for are:  hydrocodone, hydromorphone, oxymorphone, and oxycodone. 

To assist DOT-regulated employers with updating their drug and alcohol policies to comply with these new requirements, the DOT published a guidance notice on Dec. 1. The guidance can be found here.

For more information on the DOT’s updated drug testing panel, please see our previous News to Note.
