Framingham is the economic center of the MetroWest region and one of Massachusetts's most strategically located employer communities. The city hosts major pharmaceutical and healthcare manufacturers including Sanofi's North American headquarters and manufacturing operations, along with technology and consumer goods employers like Bose Corporation. Framingham's I-90 (Massachusetts Turnpike) and Route 9 access attracts distribution and logistics operations serving eastern Massachusetts, and the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's Framingham/Worcester commuter rail line runs through the city, adding FTA-regulated employer presence. The Route 9 and Route 135 corridors have active commercial construction and retail development, with a large skilled-trades and contractor staffing pool. OnSite Employer Testing dispatches mobile collectors to Framingham manufacturing plants, distribution centers, contractor yards, and employer sites throughout the MetroWest corridor.
OnSite Employer Testing coordinates mobile drug testing collections at your Framingham-area facility, yard, terminal, or job site. We do not operate a clinic. Review how it works or browse all locations we serve across the region.
Framingham sits at the I-90/Route 9 MetroWest interchange - home to some of Massachusetts's largest pharmaceutical manufacturing and distribution employers and a constant flow of DOT and non-DOT testing demand.

Applicable Regulations - Framingham, MA
DOT-regulated employers in Framingham include FMCSA motor carriers (49 CFR Part 382) operating on I-90 and local distribution routes, and FTA-regulated contractors supporting MBTA Framingham/Worcester commuter rail operations (49 CFR Part 655). All DOT collections follow 49 CFR Part 40. Pharmaceutical manufacturers and research employers handling DEA-scheduled substances may have internal testing requirements tied to their DEA registration; those programs are non-DOT and governed entirely by company policy. Massachusetts recreational cannabis law (M.G.L. c. 94G) does not affect DOT testing obligations. Non-DOT employers, particularly in pharma and manufacturing, should review their written policy for alignment with Massachusetts employment law. Program design remains the employer's responsibility.

Questions from employers in this region
We manufacture pharmaceuticals in Framingham - are we required to drug test our employees?
Federal law does not generically require all pharmaceutical manufacturers to drug test employees, but many do so under company policy, DEA registration obligations, client contracts, or industry standards. We can perform on-site collections for any program at your Framingham facility. Consult your legal and compliance team on what your specific program should require.
We run a distribution operation on I-90 in Framingham with CDL drivers - what testing program do we need?
FMCSA-regulated motor carriers must follow 49 CFR Part 382 for CDL/CMV operators, which requires pre-employment, random, post-accident, reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty, and follow-up testing. We can dispatch to your Framingham yard or distribution dock to perform those collections on-site.
Massachusetts legalized cannabis - how do we handle THC-positive results for our manufacturing employees?
Your ability to act on a positive THC result depends on your written policy being specific and consistently applied. Massachusetts does not require employers to permit cannabis impairment on the job. We recommend reviewing your policy language with employment counsel. Our role is to perform the collection; program enforcement decisions are the employer's responsibility.
