All personnel working on site at Evonik must pass both a standard 12-panel drug screen and a breath alcohol test. These tests must be conducted here at the Safety Plus offices and/or training center. The cost for both the 12-panel drug screen and alcohol test together is $35.

If an individual’s drug screen shows a non-negative result for any reason – temperature, adulterants, etc. – Safety Plus will conduct an observed drug screen for an additional $10 fee. If this result is also non-negative, a call will be placed to the individual’s company and that company will have the option of whether or not to send the drug screen to the lab. The lab fee is $60. If the test is not sent to the lab, Evonik will consider the test to be positive and the individual will be barred from the facility for at least one year.
