According to Department of Transportation (DOT) regulation 49 CFR part 40, those individuals who are employed in a DOT regulated industry must comply and live up to certain industry standards of sobriety and job performance. DOT rules and regulations are there to prevent substance abusers and addicts from performing transportation and industry safety-sensitive functions. When employees are detected by their industry through random drug screens and breathalyzers to have violated these rules and regulations an SAP is hired to do an assessment and outline a course of therapy and drug screens which will ensure that the employee complies with industry safety regulations.
