calculations established by FMCSA. Smaller companies must join a Random Consortium to be able to
meet those established Random Calculations so it is in fact Random.
Joining a Consortium
The term consortium is defined by the FMCSA as including, but not limited to, a group of employers who
join together to administer drug and alcohol testing programs.
***PLEASE NOTE***
● All Commercial Drivers are required to obtain a DOT pre-employment drug screen before you can

Next table are circumstances which prompt driver testing as found in 49 CFR 382 Subpart C (table 2)
TABLE 2
382.305 Random testing per prevailing rate as required by U.S. DOT 382.311 Follow-up testing
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations specify that when a driver is involved in an accident
he/she must submit to post-accident drug and alcohol testing as soon as reasonably possible;
Whenever there is a human fatality or Driver is issued a citation by law enforcement, there is bodily injury
or a person requiring immediate medical treatment away from the scene of the accident or there is
disabling damage to a motor vehicle involved requiring a tow from the scene. (49 CFR Part 382.303). You
must contact your employer or designated company representative as soon as is reasonably possible
after the accident if you have questions about whether post-accident testing is required. Drivers required
by a scene commander or legal authority at the accident scene to undergo post-accident must comply
regardless of the above definitions. Failure to do so constitutes a refusal to test. Where not otherwise
commanded by law enforcement Your company representative will require said driver to submit to
post-accident screening as required by 49 CFR Part 382.303.
Refusal to submit to required controlled substance or alcohol testing is in direct violation of the
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations and the Policy set forth by HARHMANII TRANSPORT LLC . No
excuse is acceptable when instructed to report for or submit to testing. Failure to be available for
testing will be construed as a refusal to test. In accordance with Federal Motor carrier Safety
Regulations a refusal to test is equivalent to a positive test result.
TABLE 3
To refuse to submit to an alcohol or controlled substances test means that a driver:
1. Fails to appear for any test (except a Pre-Employment test) within a reasonable time as determined by the
employer consistent with applicable DOT agency regulations after being directed to do so by the employer.
This includes the failure of an employee (including an owner operator) to appear for a test when called by a
C/TPA.
2. Fails to remain at the testing site until the testing proceeds are complete. Provided that an employee who
leaves the testing site before the testing process commences on a pre-employment test is not deemed to
have refused to test.
3. Fails to provide a urine specimen for any drug test required by this part of DOT regulations. Provided that an
employee who does not provide a urine specimen because he/she has left the testing site before the testing
process commences on a pre-employment test is not deemed to have refused to test.
4. In the case of a directly observed or monitored collection in a drug test, he/she fails to permit the observation
or monitoring of the driver’s provision of a specimen.
5. Fails to provide a sufficient amount of urine specimen when directed and it has been determined that there
was no adequate medical explanation for the failure.
6. Fails or declines to take a second test the employer or collector has directed the driver to take.
7. Fails to undergo a medical examination or evaluation as directed by the MRO as part of the verification
process or as directed by the DER under 49 CFR 40.193(d). In the case of a pre-employment drug test, the
employee is deemed to have refused to test on the basis only is the pre-employment test is conducted
following a contingent offer of employment.
8. Fails to cooperate with any part of the testing process (e.g., refuse to empty pockets when directed by the
collector, behave in a confrontational way that disrupts the collection process.
NOTE: In reference to Item ! for the FMCSA: “IMMEDIATE” means that the employer shall ensure the driver ceases
to perform the safety sensitive function and proceeds to the testing site as soon as possible.
The consequences for violators of Subpart B are incorporated and found in 49 CFR Part 382 Subpart E.
