ClearStar Sponsoring Free Webinar with Current Consulting Group
ClearStar – a global background screening provider that offers drug testing services – is sponsoring a free webinar about “Updating Your Drug Testing Policy for 2025” presented by drug testing expert Bill Current, President and Founder of Current Consulting Group, that will take place at 11:00 AM EDT (8:00 AM PDT) on Thursday, March 20th, 2025. To register, click here.
Todd Shoulberg, President of Medical Information Services at ClearStar, will join Bill Current to discuss the essential components of a comprehensive drug testing policy, how to ensure it complies with applicable state laws, and how to avoid the most common policy mistakes made by employers. Objectives of “Updating Your Drug Testing Policy for 2025” include:
- Identifying the critical components of an effective drug testing policy
- How to ensure applicable state law requirements are included
- How to avoid the most common policy mistakes employers make
- What to look for when updating a policy at least annually
Many employers are unaware that hundreds of drug testing bills are considered every year at the state level that, if enacted, would have a direct impact on workplace drug testing. However, according to a recent survey of employers, only 49 percent of respondents said they had updated their drug testing policy in the last twelve months.
A comprehensive and regularly updated drug testing policy is critical to the success of a company’s drug-free workplace program. To ensure compliance with applicable state laws and federal regulations and effectiveness in achieving a company’s drug testing objectives, a drug testing policy should be reviewed and updated at least annually.
Widely considered one of the leading experts on drug testing, Bill Current founded the Current Consulting Group in 1998 and it has become the #1 recognized brand name in compliance consulting in the drug testing industry. In 2001, he created Current Compliance, a leading online subscription database service on all state laws related to workplace drug testing.
Todd Shoulberg provides direction and leadership to the daily operations of ClearStar’s Medical Review Office. He is responsible for keeping all drug testing clients in compliance with state, federal, and local regulations, and identifies new testing methods and products for clients to utilize in their drug testing programs.
