Detailed explanation-1: -a. Type of schedule: The type of reinforcement schedule represented by random drug testing is the variable-interval type of reinforcement schedule. In this type of schedule the time between reinforcements varies around some average rather than being fixed.
Detailed explanation-2: -Tests are commonly used for five categories of drugs: Amphetamines; Cocaine Marijuana; Opiates; and Phencyclidine (PCP). Additional categories may include barbiturates, Benzodiazepines, ethanol (alcohol), hydrocodone, MDMA, methadone, methaqualone, or propoxyphene.
Detailed explanation-3: -Random drug testing is unannounced and unexpected. Employees don’t know they’re testing until it’s time to test. An employer, or Third Party Administrator (TPA) like Lobdock Impairment Detection, uses a random selection process to select a percentage of employees in the drug testing program.
Detailed explanation-4: -Urinalysis – A urine test is the most common form of pre-employment drug testing and is typically conducted once a conditional offer of employment has been sent. A urine test can show traces of drug use even after the effects of the drug have worn off and remain in the body for an extended period of time.
