JUDY SWARTLEY Judy Swartley is the president of Red Plant Substance Abuse Testing, Inc. , a leading provider of drug and alcohol testing services to many industries, including the construction industry. She has been involved with substance abuse testing since 2000. Served as the Safety Director at a mid-size contracting business, worked in heavy manufacturing as the QC Manager of a 4, 200 person facility of Honeywell, Inc. , Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 4 Has taught at Lehigh University and Penn State University.
SUBSTANCE ABUSE IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY There are more than 5. 5 million workers in the Construction Industry as of December 2012. (Source: http: //www. bls. gov/news. release/empsit. t 17. htm) In 2002 -2004, the federal government estimated that 13. 7% of full -time Construction Workers were current substance abusers. . . That was more than 840, 000 full-time employees which today reflects approximately 750, 000 employees. (Source: http: //oas. samhsa. gov/2 k 7/industry/worker. htm) Nearly 16% of the full-time workers in the Construction Industry admitted to being heavy alcohol users. . . approximately 874, 000 in today’s industry. Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 5 (Source: http: //oas. samhsa. gov/2 k 7/industry/worker. htm)
SUBSTANCE ABUSE IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY A study conducted by a Cornell University graduate student found that construction laborers between 25 and 34 years of age who have been treated for substance abuse have a time-loss injury rate of 23. 6 per 100 full-time equivalent workers (FTEs). That’s nearly double the rate of non-substance abusers, who had a rate of 12. 2 FTEs. The study concluded that the difference between the known substance abusers and the non-substance abusers is “likely understated. ” The study observed that: “Injuries were counted as related to substance abuse only after substance abuse was diagnosed, yet 1/3 of the substance abusers’ work-related injuries occurred before diagnosis. ” The study only tracked workers on union jobs and only substance abusers treated in programs paid for by union health insurance. ” Current.

SUBSTANCE ABUSE IN THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY Consider the undercover study by the GAO (GAO-08 -225 T) that revealed significant vulnerabilities in DOT’s urine drug testing program. What the GAO found was that: Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 7 • The DOT’s urine drug testing program is vulnerable to manipulation by drug users, especially given the wide availability of products designed to defeat drug tests. • Products could easily be brought into a collection site and used during a test. • Investigators were able to substitute synthetic urine for their sample. • Every drug masking product went undetected by the drug screening labs
DRUG TESTING WORKS! Drug testing has proven to be a powerful weapon in the war on workplace drug abuse. After implementation many companies experience a decrease in the key indicators of employee substance abuse such as accidents, workers’ compensation claims filed, usage of health care benefits, lost productivity due to absenteeism and excessive tardiness, and incidents of employee theft and workplace violence. Drug testing deters drug use and helps identify people who need help. Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 8 But there are many different ways to conduct drug testing. There alternatives available worth considering. Which is right for you?
ALTERNATIVE TO WHAT? Traditional lab-based urine testing… Collect a urine specimen Transport it to a lab The lab conducts a preliminary screen of the sample If the result is non-negative the lab conducts a confirmation test If the result is confirmed positive a medical review officer (MRO) attempts to verify it Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 9 Once the result is verified one way or the other it is reported to the employer according to applicable law
LAB-BASED ORAL FLUID TESTING Lab-based oral fluid testing is growing in popularity for several reasons: §It’s not urine §It’s nearly impossible to cheat on §It reduces the time it takes to conduct a drug test Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 10 §It renders an accurate lab-based result
WHAT THE EXPERTS ARE SAYING ABOUT ORAL FLUID? “I am seeing an increase in oral fluid testing but not hair testing. ” “We’re seeing more interest in oral fluids because it addresses collection costs and logistical issues… we have to look at profits, not revenue. ” “Yes, and it has been going on for the last 5 years… clients care more and more about what will work for them. ” “We’re seeing more combinations… oral fluid for post accident and urine for pre-employment. ” Current.

IS LAB-BASED ORAL FLUID TESTING ACCURATE? The results of lab-based oral fluid testing may have greater relevance to understanding the effects of drug abuse and assessing an individual’s behavior, job performance, and safety risk than the results from urine testing. The presence of drugs in oral fluid is usually related to the amount of drugs in the bloodstream at the time of the sample collection. 1. Oral Fluid provides a blood equivalent result 2. Oral Fluid tests for the parent drug and not just a metabolite, making it possible to detect recent drug use more accurately than urine, which typically detects only metabolites 3. Advances in oral fluid testing and collection technology are making it possible to more accurately quantify drug test results Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 14 Source: E. J.

DETECTION TIMES Drug transfer to oral fluid from blood occurs as long as the drug is in the bloodstream, thus detection times start within minutes of ingestion and continue for as long as the drug remains in the bloodstream. Drug detection by lab-based oral fluid testing is as effective as urine testing over a comparable time period. 1. Window of detection is affected by many factors regardless of the specimen being tested 2. Every drug has its own unique window of detection 3. Each specimen type has its own unique ability to reveal the presence of a particular drug Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 16 Source: E. J. Cone.

IS THE WINDOW OF DETECTION TOO SHORT? Generally, lab-based oral fluid and urine provide comparable positivity rates. Oral fluid can pick up drugs early on which urine will miss; urine can sometimes pick up positive results longer which oral fluid will miss… but on balance, cutoff levels developed for oral fluid produce similar positive rates when compared to urine.

CAN MARIJUANA BE DETECTED IN ORAL FLUID? The short answer is YES! Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 22 But there’s a little more to it than that.
FACTORS TO CONSIDER… 1. Typically, marijuana is detectable through oral fluid testing within an hour, if not immediately, after the use of the drug. 2. Cut-off levels being used have a huge impact on the detection of marijuana. 3. Testing method also plays a role: lab-based vs. POCT Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 23 4. Lab-based oral fluid testing provides a longer window of detection than current POCT devices on the market, especially with respect to marijuana. This is due to cutoffs for POCT devices being higher than lab-based oral fluid tests.

IS LAB-BASED ORAL FLUID TESTING JUST AS SUSCEPTIBLE TO CHEATING AS URINE TESTING? Lab-based oral fluid is very difficult to adulterate Lab-based oral fluid collections take place in the presence of both the donor and the administrator of the test Typical cheating methods such as switching samples or adding something to a sample are virtually impossible to successfully pull off… even if a product existed that could mask the presence of drugs in saliva Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 26 A search of the Internet will find thousands of hits for cheating on a urine drug test… only a handful for oral fluid testing
ADVICE FOR CHEATING AN ORAL FLUID DRUG TEST… One of my favorite websites for oral fluid drug test cheating is wikihow. com/pass-a-drug-test. Quoting directly from the website: “Try to avoid the test. If one is being tested and has used in the past 3 days you will need to overcome the saliva collection. To do this you will have to avoid submitting saliva and perform the steps requested of you by the instructor. ” Another offers this advice: Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 27 “To pass this [an oral fluid test] you should always know the detection time of the drug you have taken. Marijuana can be detected via saliva drug testing from an hour after ingestion up to 24 hours depending on use. Between these periods of time, you must avoid being screened or you will surely test positive. ”
CHEATERS LOVE URINE TESTING? Drug test cheating is a major concern because urine testing is particularly susceptible to adulteration, tampering and substitution. Efforts to combat drug test cheating in urine add to the cost of drug testing, infringe further upon the privacy of donors, and can further reduce the efficiency of drug testing thus reducing the ROI hoped for from drug testing. Current. Swartley. Webinar. Intercept. Construction 0113 28 Lab-based oral fluid testing virtually eliminates concerns about drug test cheating. Every oral fluid collection can be observed, thus making it impossible for someone to tamper with the specimen.

IS LAB-BASED ORAL FLUID TESTING FDA CLEARED? FDA clearance means the FDA has examined a product to ensure it is “substantially equivalent” to a device that is already legally marketed for the same use. FDA clearance is a critical issue when considering any testing method that involves self-administering collections and especially analysis as in the case of POCT. You should consider both the collection device and the lab testing system when looking for FDA clearance… in other words, has the FDA cleared each of the assays you’re testing for in the lab? The Ora. Sure Intercept® device is the only FDA-cleared, labbased testing system that can detect Amphetamine, Methamphetamines (including Ecstasy), Cocaine, THC, Opiates, PCP, Methadone, Barbiturates and Benzodiazepines Current.
