For ship managers, crew drug & alcohol testing is not a medical errand — it is a compliance obligation inspected under OCIMF guidelines and charter party terms. A test result only counts if the chain from collection to laboratory is unbroken and documented.
What a defensible program looks like
- Collection teams that board or meet vessels at Turkish ports and strait transits
- Testing matrices per policy: urine, breath alcohol, oral fluid, hair — each with its own protocol
- Custody forms executed at every step: collector, vessel representative, courier, laboratory
- Laboratory network accredited for workplace testing, with MRO review where the policy requires it
- Results routed only to the designated DPA or crew manager — confidentiality is part of compliance
The vessel's schedule is fixed; the testing schedule must fit it. Send the port call calendar and the testing matrix — we align both.
