Why breath test for cannabis?
The HOUND® CANNABIS BREATHALYZER advances cannabis testing by introducing breath as a new category to help employers align their testing policies with emerging cannabis laws. Cannabis breath testing and its short detection window solves one of the most complex and unintended challenges of rapid cannabis legalization – accurately differentiating between potentially high-risk workday use and largely irrelevant off-the-job cannabis use.
BREATH TESTING BENEFITS
Deter Workday Cannabis Use
Maintain workplace safety and deter employee use on the job or shortly before coming to work by leveraging the power of a test with the industry's shortest cannabis detection window.
Drive Cost Savings
Estimates from our savings calculator show that most employers who implement breath testing will derive exponential returns on recruiting, lawsuit prevention, and accident reduction.
Ease Workforce Challenges
Expand the hiring pool and retain employees by leveraging a cannabis screen that enables employees to make choices about using cannabis on their own time when it won’t impact work performance or safety.
Improve Workplace Safety
Testing for cannabis using breath is safer and more cost-effective than removing THC from a testing program. Positive results indicate recent use and potential risk to workplace safety.
Promote Employee Fairness
Aid in employee recruitment, acquisition, and retention. Employees want to work where they will be treated fairly and where their lifestyle choices will remain private.
Leverage a Leading Laboratory
We partner with leading national laboratories to provide accurate, reliable, LC-MS-based breath testing results.
