USA Drug Test Consultants/HRO Associates, LLC Announces New Drug Test Technology for all types of businesses

Spray/Wipe test allows environment assessment without individual testing

Northampton, PA- January 3. 2008 —USA Drug Test Consultants/HRO Associates, LLC, a Pennsylvania based company providing Drug Testing Consulting services, today announced that it will provide a breakthrough technology to businesses. The Wipe/Spray technology allows drug test specialists to detect unseen drug traces on surfaces that may have come into contact with the residue from individuals or objects that have touched drugs.

Long in use by police and drug prevention agencies, Spray/Wipe tests let technicians check for drug presence on frequently used surfaces like computer keyboards, doorknobs, backpacks, handbags, steering wheels, and countertops. Trace residue can be passed through multiple users or traffickers and end up in environments even when residue evidence is not visible to the naked eye.

While not designed to accuse individuals, Spray/Wipe tests provide an overall picture of the threat to an environment. An employee may not abuse drugs, or may use them off the work premises, but surface tests at the workplace can alert an employer to potential problems.

Spray/Wipe tests detect drugs most frequently considered sources of abuse problems: methamphetamine, THC/marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and barbiturates. It also permits business owners to test their workplace environment without inconveniencing employees or requiring awkward confrontations that might be unnecessarily embarrassing. Employers can get an overall picture of the hazards that might be present with this Phoenix drug testing product. This helps them make crucial decisions about how to implement an effective detection, control or intervention program to protect their business and workforce.

A First Line of Defense

“Individual drug testing has long been advised by the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, both in the workplace, as part of a comprehensive abuse prevention program, and in schools, as a deterrent and intervention tool. But employers, parents and school administrators are reluctant to request testing for a variety of reasons, such as concern over liability, embarrassment, and confidentiality” states Terri Powell, President of USADTC/HRO Associates, LLC. Environmental drug assessment is a “first line of defense” option made available to the business owner. This drug testing service is administered by trained drug detection specialists, it can be a source of peace of mind, or a valuable tool for determining next-stage actions.
