Public Act 093-0691 This one isn’t very long, so go ahead and read it. I’ll wait.
Okay, here’s the scoop.
It’s against the law in IL to possess, manufacture or sell substances or methods that help people cheat on drug tests. This includes synthetic urine, adulterants, or devices intended to help people smuggle these things in.
It’s also illegal to substitute or adulterate your specimen.
For the purposes of this Section, ‘drug or alcohol screening test’ includes, but is not limited to, urine testing, hair follicle testing, perspiration testing, saliva testing, blood testing, fingernail testing, and eye drug testing.
A violation of this Section is a Class 4 felony for which the court shall impose a minimum fine of $1,000.
The last two quotes come directly from the law in the link above. We don’t test nails or eyes (yet???) at InOut Labs, but we do test the others.
If you drug test at your business, how do you deal with cheaters? Do you fire them? Help them? A well-written policy makes sure you treat all employees the same.
