IMPORTANT NOTICE: Answer: Anyone testing positive for nicotine would fail the nicotine screening and thus would not be eligible for employment with ECUA. Question: If I am a smoker and decide to quit, how long does it take to get out of my system? Answer: The amount of time it takes to "get out of your system" depends on many factors, such as how long you have been using nicotine products. More information is available online and from your physician. Question: Why is ECUA testing for nicotine? Answer: Tobacco addiction is among the leading preventable causes of morbidity and mortality in the United States, and in the world. According to the National Business Group on Health, employers save over $3,800 per year for each employee who quits smoking. The Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicines says smokers cost employers $4,430 per year in lost productivity.
