Las Vegas is one of the most progressive cities in the world. It is dubbed as "The Entertainment Capital of the World" for being the home to world-class casino resorts, gaming establishments, shopping and fine dining restaurants. Sadly, the city’s frenzied nightlife is also susceptible to the growing cases of drug use in the country.
According to a 2004 statistics, there were 3,563 referrals to the Clark County Department of Juvenile Justice Services (DJJS) for drug and controlled substances offenses. Of this number, around 1,242 were for marijuana possession. In a separate report, it was revealed that in 2008, there were approximately 5,800 total substance abuse treatment admissions in Las Vegas – 68 percent were male and 32 percent were female.
Unfortunately, just like the other states in the country, Las Vegas workplace was not spared by the alarming problem of drug use. Hence, many businesses in this city have started performing stringent drug testing and background screening to all its existing employees and job applicants.
The drug testing procedures conducted by organizations in Las Vegas vary according to the type of samples collected. Among the most common include urine drug test, saliva drug test and hair follicle drug test. Other companies combine their drug testing with background checks to know past employment history of the job applicants, or check if they have been involved in felony charges and if their behavior will be a problem of the company in the future.
In a more general perspective, employers include drug testing and background checks in their drug-free initiatives to:
- Commit their workplaces to the overall health and safety of their employees, by reducing drug-related injuries, accidents, and crime.
- Meet Federal or State regulations that require drug testing for specific jobs.
- Protect the reputation and financial interests of the workplaces.
- Develop environments that have increasingly negative attitudes toward drug use and abuse.
At present, there are over a dozen drug testing and background screening services available for small to medium-sized businesses, as well as larger corporations. Your options range from basic drug tests to individually packaged background screening or a combination of drug testing and background checks.
While onsite drug test kits are relatively cheaper than laboratory test, the actual cost of implementing drug test and background checks depends on the number of employees that needs to be tested and the kind of drug and background screening to be performed.
