AI Overview
Overview of Local Drug Testing
Drug testing is a common procedure used in various contexts, including employment, sports, and law enforcement, to detect the presence of controlled substances in an individual's system. Local drug testing refers to drug tests administered within a specific locality or community, often facilitated by local healthcare providers, testing facilities, or through workplace initiatives. This overview provides consumers with key information about the purposes, methods, and implications of local drug testing.
Purposes of Drug Testing
Drug testing serves several purposes:
- Employment: Employers may require drug testing to ensure a safe and productive work environment, often as a part of pre-employment screening or randomly throughout employment.
- Sports: Athletes are regularly tested to maintain fair competition and deter the use of performance-enhancing drugs.
- Legal and Forensic: Drug testing can be ordered by courts in cases of drug-related offenses or in custody disputes.
- Medical Reasons: Healthcare providers may perform drug tests to diagnose substance abuse disorders or monitor treatment efficacy.
Common Drug Testing Methods
Several methods are used for drug testing, each with its own specific applications and detection windows:
- Urine Testing: The most common method due to its non-invasiveness and ability to detect a wide range of substances within hours to a few weeks after use.
- Blood Testing: Provides a more accurate measurement of active substances in the body but is more invasive and used less frequently.
- Saliva Testing: Gaining popularity for its non-invasive nature and ability to detect recent drug use.
- Hair Follicle Testing: Can detect drug use over a longer period, typically up to 90 days, making it useful for detailed monitoring.
Legal and Ethical Considerations

- Consent: In most cases, individuals must provide informed consent before undergoing drug testing.
- Privacy: Results from drug tests are considered private health information and must be handled according to privacy laws.
- Accuracy: Testing facilities must adhere to strict standards to ensure the accuracy and reliability of test results.

About Raeford
Local Area Info: Raeford, North Carolina
Raeford is a city in Hoke County, North Carolina, United States. The population was 4,611 at the 2010 census, and in 2016 the estimated population was 4,998. It is the county seat of Hoke County. The county was named after Confederate General Robert F. Hoke, a North Carolina native.
John McRae and A.A. Williford operated a turpentine distillery and general store, respectively. Each took a syllable from his name and came up with the name Raeford for the post office they established.[citation needed] The MacRae family, who lived at the "ford of the creek", was at one time made up primarily of old Highland Scot families. Likewise, the Upper Cape Fear Valley of North Carolina was in the 18th and 19th centuries the largest settlement of Gaelic-speaking Highland Scots in North America.[citation needed] Today, many of these old families continue to live in the area, though their presence is noticeably diminished by the great numbers of newcomers to the area as a result of Fort Bragg. Since World War II, many Lumbee Indian families have moved northward from Robeson County and now constitute a significant element of the population that is otherwise European and African American.
Raeford is located in central Hoke County at 34°58?54?N 79°13?39?W? / ?34.98167°N 79.22750°W? / 34.98167; -79.22750 (34.981800, -79.227469). It is bordered to the northeast by Rockfish Creek, an east-flowing tributary of the Cape Fear River. The southern part of the city drains to Toneys Creek, a south-flowing component of the Lumber River–Pee Dee River–Waccamaw River watershed.
Raeford Employee Drug Testing
Businesses that utilize an employee drug testing program are commonly referred to as a Drug Free Workplace. However, many times companies do not fully qualify as a Drug Free Workplace because the drug testing program which they use does not have all of the components which make up a true Drug Free Workplace.
The benefits of being a true Drug Free Workplace can include but are not limited to:
- Enhanced Employee Performance
- Reduced Job-Related Accidents
- Reduced Employee Absenteeism
- Lower Workers Compensation Rates
- Improved Employee Moral
- Customer Satisfaction
In addition, many companies regardless of size report that being a Drug Free Workplace has increased the quality of job applicants and improved the overall workplace environment.
Also many states such as Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee, South Carolina, Virginia, Wyoming, Ohio, Alabama, Arkansas, Washington provide by law a discount on workers compensation insurance rates provided a business qualifies as a Drug Free Workplace in accordance with state law.
States Which Provide Workers Compensation Discounts for Drug Free Workplace Programs
Alabama 5% |

Florida 5% |
Kentucky 5% |
Misissippi 5% |
Ohio 5% |
Tennessee 5% |
Virginia 5% |
Washington 5% |
Accredited Drug Testing Inc will work with your insurance agent to ensure that any available discounts are provided for implementing and properly maintaining a drug free workplace.
Any company can benefit by being a Drug Free Workplace regardless of the number of employees, but it is crucially important that any business that wishes to be a Drug Free Workplace maintain the program properly.
A properly maintained Drug Free Workplace should include the following:
- A written Drug Free Workplace Policy
- Employee Drug Testing
- Employee Education
- Supervisor Training
- Employee Assistance Program(EAP)
- Drug Free Workplace Signage
Studies have shown that substance abuse among employees has serious repercussions for both the working environment and the economic success of the business.
