Coal Miners Drug Testing & Drug Testing Kits
Drug Testing For Mine Workers
A bill that would require drug testing for coal miner workers get an incredibly approval in the Kentucky Senate on Wednesday.
The Senate made just a few changes to the version that passed the House previously. The measure returns to the House for what could be a final vote.
The measure is aimed at improving safety in Kentucky coal mines by not letting workers who abuse drugs to work underground workplaces.
The screenings would be required before miners are hired. Miners would then be randomly tested after they begin work. Coal miners who test positive for drugs would have their certification revoked.
Three years ago, marijuana was found at the scene of a blasting accident that killed one man and seriously injured another in a Floyd County underground mine. An employee told investigators he saw miners snorting crushed painkillers.
In a series of public meetings over the past year, state regulators heard from coal operators and miners who said drug abuse had become widespread and needed to be dealt with.
