The post-holiday season often brings a wave of hiring—seasonal wrap-ups, new-year growth plans, and fresh budgets can all mean new roles to fill. And when you’re onboarding quickly, pre-employment drug testing is one of the easiest ways to protect your team, support workplace safety, and keep your hiring process consistent.
At Any Lab Test Now®, we make employee testing straightforward and convenient—most visits are quick, and employers can schedule what they need with ease.
Why Pre-Employment Drug Testing Matters (Especially After the Holidays)
During post-holiday hiring, timelines are tight. Drug testing helps employers:
- Set clear expectations from day one
- Reduce risk and improve workplace safety
- Maintain a consistent, documented hiring process
It’s also commonly used during onboarding—especially 10-panel urine testing, which is a well-known standard for employer screening.
Pre-Employment Testing Options Available at Any Lab Test Now®
Testing needs vary by role and industry. Here are testing options specifically referenced as available through Any Lab Test Now®:
1) Urine Drug Testing (Common for Pre-Employment)
- 5-Panel Drug Test Urine
- Urine 10-Panel with Expanded Opiates
- This 10-panel option includes commonly screened drug classes and expanded opiates; it’s frequently used for employer onboarding.
2) Alcohol-Related Testing (Helpful for Certain Safety-Sensitive Roles)

Tips for Smoother Post-Holiday Onboarding
