BIG to Speak at the 2023 Drug & Alcohol Testing Industry Association (DATIA) Conference
We are excited to announce that BIG's Director of Occupational Health Screening and Department of Transportation Compliance, Lisa Shields, will host a breakout session on Friday, March 24 at this year's DATIA Conference.
In her presentation, "Embracing the new 'Normal' and how to best navigate challenges associated with non-mandated testing in 2023," Lisa will discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic changed "business as usual" long term. This session will explore best practices for managing a drug screening program in the advent of increased remote work, staffing problems for collection sites, and illegal drug and marijuana misuse within the workforce. With more than 20 years of industry experience, Lisa is a seasoned professional and is well-versed on topics related to occupational health screening and industry compliance.
Lisa is a member of DATIA and serves on the Education Committee. BIG's Director of Medical Affairs, Dr. Neha Badheka is also a DATIA member and serves on the Board of Directors. In their roles, Lisa and Dr. Badheka support DATIA's strategic plan to educate organizational members and industry stakeholders.
DATIA is the national association for the drug and alcohol testing industry, providing education, resources, and advocacy for drug and alcohol testing, third-party administration, and regulatory compliance. DATIA's Annual Conference serves as a platform for industry professionals to attend programming and learn more about operating successful drug-free workplaces and changes in the regulatory landscape.
