Regarding state laws for drug testing, Nebraska has a very open workplace drug testing law; all types of testing are permitted. For alcohol testing, a breathalyzer, and confirmation testing is required. Persons refusing to be tested may be subject to adverse employment action including “denial of continued employment.”
Workers’ comp benefits can possibly be denied for a positive drug or alcohol test when the employee was in a state of intoxication. 48-127. compensation; willful negligence; intoxication; effect. “If the employee is injured by reason of his or her intentional willful negligence, or by reason of being in a state of intoxication, neither he nor she nor his or her beneficiaries shall receive any compensation under the Nebraska Workers’ compensation act.” The state of Nebraska unequivocally endorses the philosophy that the workplace should be free from the detrimental effects of illicit drugs.
A point to further strengthen the state of Nebraska’s drug-free workplace policy is that all businesses, individuals, and organizations engaging in, or seeking to engage in, business with the state must establish and provide proof of a drug-free workplace policy.
At National Drug Screening, we test the urine for traces of illegal drugs, including prescription and non-prescription medication. Our state-of-the-art drug testing solutions can find the smallest trace of residue drug and alcohol left behind. Our medical review officers (MRO) work side by side with 12 full-time MRO assistants. When immediate drug testing is needed, tests are completed without hesitation, and results are sent using one of our convenient and cost-effective methods. An MRO can review the specimen lab test results, and make a positive or a negative finding report based on an investigation, or solely on the findings of the lab test results.
We use email, fax, or a secure web portal to deliver confidential test results. Our customers get the same high-quality assistance we give to government agencies. Our testing equipment, software, and collection process are simple, legal, and used in National Drug Screening offices throughout the united states. We use a powerful web-based driven software platform that makes testing results accessible from any convenient location.
We perform DOT consortium drug tests for businesses that rely on the sobriety of their dot drivers. DOT regulated employees must have at a minimum a 5-panel dot urine drug test performed at a SAMHSA certified laboratory and reviewed by an MRO (medical review officer).
Non-DOT employers have many options. For this purpose, we provide several options for testing drugs and alcohol. Our five-panel hair test can easily detect the presence of drugs. A 5-panel hair test that can detect drug use for up to 90 days. When the results are done, we forward them to the requester immediately. This could not be possible without the high-efficiency software we use.
We use the same testing software and equipment found in federally mandated collection sites. These labs include LabCorp, Quest, and many others. We perform tests on urine, saliva, and hair follicles. We test for Opium, Cocaine, Codeine, PCP, Marijuana, Methamphetamine, and other illegal drugs. We also offer consultative services to businesses that want to establish a drug-free workplace, with a zero drug and alcohol tolerance policy.

Not all company accidents are drug or alcohol-related, but wouldn’t it be nice to know for sure? Random testing helps keep employees in line, and it also helps to keep company drivers alert, and passengers safe. Our workplace drug testing is administered by testing a urine sample in an icup or at a SAMHSA certified laboratories. Our ETG alcohol test is administered by testing urine or hair and is used for court-ordered drug testing.
These are the same tamper-proof cups used in our drug testing centers throughout the world. Many of the drug testing centers, we use are near job sites, and main highways, which makes it more convenient for employees and employers to schedule their appointment, without missing a day of work.

Drug testing centers offer immediate testing for legal cases, probation drug test requirements, and family law cases.
