A clear path back to safety-sensitive work.
If you hold a CDL or work in another DOT-regulated role and have a drug or alcohol violation on record, you need a qualified SAP before you can return to duty. I provide that evaluation in Cypress, Texas: fair, thorough, and explained in plain language.
The SAP process is the same federal framework (49 CFR Part 40) across DOT-regulated industries. I work with both sides of it.
-
Initial assessment
A face-to-face clinical evaluation. I review your history and the violation, then recommend education, treatment, or both.
-
Complete the recommendation
You complete the recommended program with a separate education or treatment provider. I can help you understand your options.
-
Follow-up evaluation
I confirm you have followed the recommendation and assess whether you are ready to return to safety-sensitive duty. I then send my report to your employer.
-
Return-to-duty test
Your employer directs a return-to-duty drug and/or alcohol test. It must be negative, and it must happen before you perform safety-sensitive functions again.
-
Follow-up testing
I set a follow-up testing plan: unannounced tests, at least six in the first 12 months. Your employer carries it out.
The SAP makes recommendations and sets the testing plan. Whether you are hired or reinstated is your employer’s decision.
