Most companies in the transportation industry need to exercise caution with whom they hire. They need to ensure their employees will be of sound mind, have strong attention to detail, be capable of enhanced clear communication, and be able to adhere to their safety standards and protocols at all times. "At NAV CANADA, safety is our priority. We require pre-employment drug screening for all candidates offered positions designated as safety sensitive in accordance with NAV CANADA's Drug and Alcohol policy." Assure the interviewer that you are willing to comply with any pre-checks they require.

"I am happy to comply with any background check required. My criminal record is clean, as is my driver's abstract. I don't do drugs and drink only occasionally, so the drug test is fine with me as well. You can rest assured that if you hire me for this role with NAV CANADA, I will maintain a clean record."

I'm more than happy to have any background checks or drug screenings to be done. I've got a clean criminal record, have never done any drugs, and only drink very occasionally. Rest assured if you hire me I will maintain this clean record during my tenure at NAV CANADA.
