What is a random test Consortium?
When conducting drug testing, it is common for many companies to engage in joint testing. The employees of the companies involved in the consortium are stored in the collective pool. Drugs and alcohol are randomly selected from the pool. A common random testing pool is required for all owners and operators regulated by a DOT agency. The only ones using random groups are independents. The larger the company, the more likely it is to use this approach. There is no set minimum or a maximum number of participants for randomized study groups, either independent or consortium. The owner-operator is the only one that needs to be included in the group. DOT regulated companies and companies not served by goMDnow, goMDnow maintains independent groups and consortium groups. Most of our sample customers are subject to federal regulations (FMCSA).
