Drug and Health Screenings
Get easier, more reliable drug testing

Executive Summary
Checkr's drug and health screenings let employers test candidates and employees for drugs and alcohol and run occupational health checks such as physicals, immunizations, TB tests, and hearing and vision tests. Tests can be ordered on their own or as part of a background check package. Candidates choose a clinic and take the test there, or employers can use onsite testing, and results are posted to the employer's Checkr dashboard. Checkr says testing is done at SAMHSA-certified labs, with certified Medical Review Officers overseeing results.
