Mobile Drug Testing for Construction Employers and Job Sites

Need drug testing on an active job site? We come to your jobsite trailer, staging area, GC office, laydown yard, or approved work location when available. Post-accident, random, reasonable suspicion, or pre-employment testing can be coordinated on-site so your crew does not have to leave the project longer than necessary.

Keep crews closer to the jobsite with mobile collection support for pre-employment, random, post-accident, reasonable suspicion, and project-driven testing needs when available.

Jobsite testing has to work in the real world

Construction employers do not need a clinic model designed for office staff. They need collections that fit active jobsites, multi-employer environments, and strict schedule pressure. We provide onsite and mobile drug and alcohol testing for construction employers that need collections completed without pulling key workers off the project longer than necessary.

Where construction programs get difficult

Construction testing becomes harder when:

  • crews are spread across multiple sites

  • one project has both DOT and non-DOT employees

  • access is controlled by a GC or owner

  • post-incident response has to happen quickly

  • high-volume hiring creates bursts of pre-employment testing

A workable program does not eliminate those realities. It plans around them.

Common testing events on construction projects

Pre-employment and onboarding

New phases, staffing surges, and subcontractor onboarding often create a large number of screens in a short period.

Random testing

Random programs work best when collections are batched around shift timing and gate access instead of pushing workers to scattered clinics.

Post-accident and reasonable suspicion

These events need calm field execution, privacy, and a direct communication line between site leadership and the collector. See post-accident and reasonable suspicion testing for incident-driven workflows.

Why contractors use onsite collections

Onsite testing gives contractors and GCs better control over:

  • donor flow

  • supervisor oversight

  • privacy staging

  • time away from production

  • chain-of-custody consistency across multiple projects

It also reduces the wasted hours that come from sending a foreman, operator, or craft worker across town in the middle of an active day.

Mixed workforces need clear routing

Construction employers often have a mix of CDL drivers, equipment transport roles, craft labor, office staff, and subcontractor personnel. That means one site can include both DOT and non-DOT testing paths at the same time.

The safest approach is to identify program type before the collector arrives. Do not sort it out at the trailer door. Compare DOT and non-DOT testing paths before collection day.

What a construction site should have ready

Before the event, confirm:

  • employer authority for each donor

  • whether the order is DOT or non-DOT

  • test reason

  • restroom and privacy access

  • site PPE rules

  • the single on-site contact for the collector
