What is PDS?

PDS stands for Pre-employment Drug Screen. A PDS is a way to protect our campus, reduce legal exposure relating to negligent hiring, and allow the University to move more emphatically toward implementation of its stated Drug-free Policy. 

A prospective regular employee or a new HR Temporary Employment employee is given the PDS screen after the point where the job offer has been made; the job offer is contingent on the successful completion of the PDS process.
