Employers in Oklahoma may require applicants to take a drug test as a condition of employment and in addition following a workplace accident causing injury or property damage, along with random drug testing, for reasonable suspicion, as part of a routine fitness-for-duty exam, and as a follow-up to a rehabilitation program. employers in Oklahoma must follow strict laws for drug testing and a drug-free workplace.

A new drug-free workplace law was passed in Oklahoma and became effective November 1, 2011, the highlights of the drug free workplace law includes the following:

• Testing of independent contractors and employees of independent contractors is now expressly permitted, provided the contractual agreement allows for such testing and other workers at the job site are similarly subject to testing
• Less stringent policy requirements and substantially less technicality in testing policies
• No list of substances needed
• Less notice required – employers only need to give employees 10 days advance notice before implementing new or changed policies
• The act’s “reasonable suspicion” standard has been replaced by a “reasonable belief” standard
• The workers’ compensation and unemployment prohibitions for individuals testing positive have been strengthened
• Reduction of the statute of limitations to one year
• Elimination of the employer-sponsored eap requirement
• Provision for the award of attorney’s fees to a successful defendant
• Repeal of criminal provisions

Employers now look forward to a more employer-friendly drug-free workplace act. Some of the major changes include:

• Reasonable suspicion testing is now replaced with for-cause testing. Employers may test at any time they believe an employee is under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Examples include but are not limited to:

1. Drugs or alcohol on or about the employee’s person or in the employee’s vicinity, conduct on the employee’s part that suggests impairment or influence of drugs or alcohol,
2. A report of drug or alcohol use while at work or on duty, information that an employee has tampered with drug or alcohol testing at any time,
3. Negative performance patterns, or
4. Excessive or unexplained absenteeism or tardiness 

• Workers Compensation Post-accident Testing Improved.  An employer may require an employee to undergo drug or alcohol testing if the employee or another person has sustained an injury while at work or the employer’s property has been damaged (no dollar minimum required).  for purposes of workers’ compensation, no employee who tests positive. . . .  or refuses to take a drug or alcohol test required by the employer, shall be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits.
• Employer Policy Requirements Change.  Employers now need only give 10 days’ notice of a new policy or a change in policy.  Employer can now provide notice of policy changes by posting on the employer’s website or intranet site.
• No need to list substances. There is no longer a need to list all the substances tested because it shall be sufficient for an employer to state in the written policy that the substances tested shall be for drugs and alcohol
• Time to request confirmation streamlined. An employee who tests positive now has only twenty-four (24) hours after receiving notice of a positive test to request confirmation testing. This is an improvement over the previously undefined, seemingly unlimited, time to request confirmation testing.
• Employer on-site testing now allowed. Employers may now use their own on-site testing methods such as breathalyzer testing, testing by use of a single-use test device, known as an on-site or quick testing device, a caveat:  However, a breathalyzer test shall not be grounds for immediate termination absent a confirmation test.

Employers may now also collect, handle, store, and ship a sample collected for testing. 

• Unemployment Denied!  An employee discharged on the basis of a refusal to undergo drug or alcohol testing or a confirmed positive drug or alcohol test . . . Shall be considered to have been discharged for misconduct for purposes of unemployment compensation benefits . . . In order to prove misconduct, the employer need only provide proof of a testing policy and either a refusal to take a drug or alcohol test or a positive test result.
• Actions for violations of the act must now be brought within one (1) year of the alleged willful violation of the act. To prevail, an employee must prove that the employer had a specific intent to violate the act.

Oklahoma employers with drug-free workplace policies have an opportunity to deny both unemployment claims and deny workers comp claims.  Oklahoma employers who have not updated policies since the 2001 change in the law are highly encouraged to update their drug-free workplace program and policy.

Post-accident drug and alcohol testing are critical to the potential to deny a workers compensation claim in Oklahoma.  Post-accident – when an injury while at work or the employer’s property has been damaged (no dollar minimum required). Workers’ compensation, no employee who tests positive. . . .  or refuses to take a drug or alcohol test required by the employer, shall be eligible for workers’ compensation benefits.  In Oklahoma, an employee is ineligible for workers’ compensation benefits if they have a positive drug test.  Drug and alcohol testing is so important from a worker’s compensation point of view.

So many say it’s not true about denying a worker’s comp claim based on a positive drug test. Well, you don’t know unless you try it.  If you’re not doing post-accident testing or not doing it properly you may lose the opportunity to challenge an otherwise defensible claim. You have to conduct post-accident/injury drug/alcohol tests, and you must conduct those tests in accordance with rules for the state of Oklahoma.

dot regulated employers in Oklahoma need to be concerned about the dot drug and alcohol testing requirements as outlined in 49 CFR part 40.  motor carriers in Oklahoma regulated under fmcsa must have a drug and alcohol testing policy as per the requirements of 49 CFR part 382.601.  this required dot fmcsa drug and alcohol testing policy must include for dot regulated Oklahoma employers the following:

49 cfr part 382.601(b) – a company’s DOT policy must contain the following:

1. The identity of the person designated by the employer to answer driver questions about the materials – designated employer representative (der).
2. The categories of drivers who are subject to the provisions of this part. sufficient information about the safety-sensitive functions performed by those drivers to make clear what period of the workday the driver is required to be in compliance.
3. Specific information concerning driver conduct that is prohibited by part 382.
4. The circumstances under which a driver will be tested for alcohol and/or controlled substances under this part, including post-accident testing under §382.303(d).
5. The procedures that will be used to test for the presence of alcohol and controlled substances, protect the driver and the integrity of the testing processes, safeguard the validity of the test results, and ensure that those results are attributed to the correct driver, including post-accident information, procedures, and instructions required by §382.303(d).
6. The requirement that a driver submits to alcohol and controlled substances tests administered in accordance with part 382.
7. An explanation of what constitutes a refusal to submit to an alcohol or controlled substances test and the attendant consequences.
8. The consequences for drivers found to have violated subpart b of this part, including the requirement that the driver be removed immediately from safety-sensitive functions, and the procedures under part 40, subpart o.
9. The consequences for drivers found to have an alcohol concentration of 0.02 or greater but less than 0.04.
10. Information concerning the effects of alcohol and controlled substances use on an individual’s health, work, and personal life; signs and symptoms of an alcohol or a controlled substances problem (the driver’s or a co-worker’s); and available methods of intervening when alcohol or a controlled substances problem is suspected, including confrontation, referral to any employee assistance program and or referral to management.

FMCSA regulations 49 part 382 have very specific requirements for the following and these should be addressed in the company’s dot policy:

• Employee education
• Supervisor training
• Random testing
• Post-accident testing
• Reasonable suspicion testing

Drug-free workplace programs in Oklahoma must be written carefully in order to minimize exposure to liability. Drug testing cannot detect impairment. The word impaired or impairment should never be in your policy.  The policy should prohibit the illicit use of drugs. The employer is justified in taking adverse employment action based on illegal conduct.  You can “discriminate” against those who engage in criminal behavior.  drug testing needs to occur in order to deal with: off-the-job accidents, health-care costs, drug dealing, performance problems, attendance problems, and impairment on the job.  again, employers have the right to discriminate against those who break the law – simpler, less vulnerable to attack, a lower burden of proof:  “did he/she reliably test positive?” is the only issue.

The words “safety and health” should be in the first sentence of your substance-abuse-prevention policy.  Always state your company is committed to protecting the safety, health, and well-being of its employees and all people who come into contact with its workplace(s) and property, and/or use its products and services.  as illicit drug use poses a significant threat to this goal, your company is committed to assuring a drug-free working environment for all of its employees.  the “health, safety, and well-being” basis is the best justification for a substance-abuse-prevention policy.  remember impairment detection is not part of a drug-free workplace or drug testing.
