Obtain consent to drug test employees: Drug Test Consent Form
What is a Drug Test Consent Form?
Before conducting a drug test, a Drug Testing Consent Form should be used. By signing the form, the employee agrees to participate in the drug test and provide the appropriate samples for analysis. In addition, the employee authorizes the testing of the samples by a laboratory, agrees to disclose any relevant information to any government entity involved in legal proceedings related to the test, and waives the right to sue the employer, even if there is an error in the process of administering or analyzing the test or its results.
This Drug Test Consent Form can be customized for a specific person or used as a generic form as needed.
When to use a Drug Test Consent Form:
- An employee was injured or in an accident on the job, and you want to test one or multiple employees for drugs.
- You're planning on drug testing your employees.
- You're in HR and need to make sure you have the right forms available if you need to conduct a drug test on one or multiple employees.
