Do you know any trucking company that hires people who failed a drug test

Nope. They won't hire you. Time to find a new line of work.

 

Was that test with a trucking company? If not...simply omit it. It won't be on your DAC, and (most) companies (non-trucking) will not report a failed drug test for fear of being sued. They will simply put a "Do Not rehire" on your file.

 

The way it was explained to me at Sage CDL school was this, upon failing a drug test you have to come up with 15 hundred dollars to hand over to a SAP, state approved phycologist. After completion of a rehab program they will either, and I am not sure here, give you a clean slate or put you on probation but you can still be a driver. I am not sure about other states, this was in Pennsylvania. drive55cat

 

Yes as long as you did your SAP program a company is allowed to hire you/rehire you. We have hired drivers as such,, although you are subject to randoms without the normal random regulation. Meaning the company can say hey go pee in a cup 2 days after you take a test.

So yeah it's possible and yes some bigger companies will do it. Many understand that sometimes drugs/alcohol do get in the way and depending on the situation they might give some slack .

There is hope just keep trying. Getting some help regardless if you feel you need it, looks good for the record . Some may not even require that, not sure on them regs.

 

This information is false. There is a possibility of rehie, but you will have to comply with the governing regulations. A Substance Abuse Program will have to be completed, and you will be subject to random testing as part of the program. The company that hires you will have to be aware of the requirements and as with anyone getting hired, they will have to clear it with their insurance carriers.

Since you are not employed by a trucking company now, you will end up footing the bill yoruself, or possibly having it's cost covered in some other way.

It's possible, but you are going to have to put in some real effort, and walk the straight and narrow from this point onwards.

 

if you failed a drug test and i was running a trucking company, it wouldn't matter if you drove when you failed it or not, simple fact is I would not hire anyone who failed a drug test. but there are companies out there who really don't care if you fail one or not....

 

I am glad things worked out for you and you got a second chance. I also agree that many people on here are quick to pass judgement without knowing the facts. However in the future I would recommend not self medicating.

 

People are quick to say the things that are coming out of your mouth. But if they sit back and think about what they did in there past...... They may think twice about what they say......Because there is no one on this earth perfect.........Everything that happens in your life is a learning experience. So i truely believe that you should get a second chance.....Remember that GOD FORGIVES NO MATTER WHAT......THINK ABOUT THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
