drug testing policy @ Eli Lilly...

[Anonymous]

what is the drug testing policy with Eli Lilly? Hair or Urine? What about random testing?

you will be drug tested when offered the job. It will be a urine test and a blood test. They will test for drugs and do a complete cholesterol check. A random drug test is always possible. I have been with the company for 3 years and never been tested but you never know.

I would recommend shaving your head befiore the first day just to be safe.

It's not only random. With the redbook policy all anyone has to do is turn your name into HR and you will be tested under the "random" policy. If you turn up positive you're fired.

Hey Pot head! Go apply at Pfizer, everyone is slow in their organization and probably will never catch on!

fuckwads...you are tested when you are hired and that's it, unless you go out on medical for more than six months...company can ask for new screen. you have to be really stupid, like leave your bong in the front passenger seat the day your robot manager is riding with you for there to be cause for subsequent testing. they do not do random testing or follow up on leads...too much liability for it to be viewed harrassment.
best feeling is taking that piss test and then going home and blowing a big tube!!!

Are you kidding? Lilly doesn't even test the drugs they sell. Take a look at that suicide drug Cymbalta they schlep. You have nothing to worry about.

Not completely accurate, a co-worker was tested after a very brief medical leave following a knee reconstruction.

Lilly is inept at predicting where there may be liability. Send an anonymous tip into the redbook ethics hotline on your favorite jerk and see what happens. Lilly is looking to cut head count in any fashion possible.

Is the initial drug-testing policy or precedent with urine or hair?

You will also have a drug screen if you have a sleep study done.

drug testing after sleep study- that's crap

It's done before you're wired up and plugged in.

that is extreme- typically Lilly does the usual screens as any company would

Pfizer does a pre-hire test and also tests randomly. A co-worker got the call requiring a stop in to the medical office at the end of the day.

Was the random Pfizer test urine or hair?

 

[Anonymous]

why are you worried about hair? No one outside of AZ does hair in pharma. Smoke away.

Outside of AZ??? I heard several companies are beginning hair tests...careful Cheech.
