Failed a DOT test? Your career is not over.
Confidential guidance through the return-to-duty process, in all 50 states.
Should you be a DOT-regulated employee and work in a safety-sensitive position, public transit, trucking, aviation, maritime, railroad, motion picture industry, or pipeline industries, and have violated a DOT drug and alcohol testing regulation, you are required to go through the SAP process.
DOT-mandated employees must see a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP). This means the SAP is required to have specialized training, credentialing and continuing education. The SAP must also follow specific rules and regulations regarding recommended education and/or treatment facilities.
BetterCallDarrell provides DOT/SAP, NRC/SAE and EAP services in all 50 states and U.S. territories, and 2 international countries, Canada and Mexico.
