For-Cause testing isn’t random.
It’s not based on suspicion alone.
And it’s definitely not emotional.
It’s used when observable behavior raises documented concerns.
Ask yourself:
• Is there a noticeable change in behavior?
• Are safety protocols being ignored?
• Has performance suddenly declined?
• Are there physical signs of possible impairment?
For-Cause testing protects:
✔ The employee
✔ The employer
✔ The integrity of the workplace
Documentation + certified testing = decisions backed by facts.
Do you have a clear For-Cause testing policy in place? Yes or No?
