Draft guidelines
DRAFT
guidelinesfor the collection part for urine and oral fluid
and the entire procedure for hair for feedback.
Please
give comments on three levels:
1. It would be better if you change... including change in
the language.
2. I strongly recommend this/these changes...
3. If you do not change this/these, I think the guidelines
are unacceptable.
There
will be a workshop at the EWDTS
meeting in Copenhagen. Please send your comments to Per.bjorklov@drugtestscandinavia.eu

European Laboratory Guidelines
for Legally Defensible Workplace Drug Testing
These guidelines for Legally
Defensible Workplace Drug Testing have been prepared by the
European Workplace Drug Testing Society (EWDTS). They are
based on the UK Guidelines drawn up by a Steering Group representing
the following UK analytical laboratories:
- Cardiff BioAnalytical Services
- Department of Forensic Medicine & Science,
University of Glasgow
- Forensic Science Service
- JMJ Laboratories
- LGC
- London Toxicology Group
- Medscreen
- Newcastle Royal Infirmary Toxicology Department,
- OmniLabs
- Scientifics
- Tackler Analytical
The European Guidelines are designed to establish
best practice procedures whilst allowing individual countries
to operate within the requirements of national customs and legislation.
The detail within the appendices will therefore vary from country
to country.
The EWDTS is the owner of these Guidelines (requires copyright
statement).
These Guidelines relate only to the collection of urine samples,
their laboratory analysis, and subsequent interpretation of
the results.
The EWDTS guidelines have been approved by the Laboratory Committee
of EA
(European co-operation for Accreditation) as a technical
document (category 4). and they can be accessed on their website

the download form.
Please, be sure to supply us with a valid e-mail address so
that we will be able to keep you informed about future developments
of the guidelines. |
