Alcohol Abuse in the Workplace: What Is USA Mobile Drug Testing?

What is USA Mobile Drug Testing?


franchisebuzz.com USA Mobile Dug Testing (USA MDT) is a new franchise opportunity offered in response to the growing epidemic of drug & alcohol abuse in the workplace. Their mission is to provide their clients with individualized testing to ensure a safe workplace environment. Employers now realize that such abuse can result in increases in workers compensation claims and loss time from work. Too often, employers would require employees to go off-site to have these tests performed, only to have them return hours later or not at all. USA Mobile Drug Testing franchise owners provide an on-the-spot testing mechanism for employers to have these tests performed on-site. All testing is in accordance with state regulations and the Federal Drug Free Workplace Testing guidelines. When you become a franchisee, you and your entire staff will be trained by USA MDT. Learn more why this is one of the fastest growing franchises around.
