Drug/Alcohol Testing

When it comes to drug and alcohol testing, employers must balance the desire for a drug-free workplace with employees' privacy rights. So before implementing a drug testing policy, employers must address such issues as whether random drug testing is necessary, and legal; how a post-accident drug/alcohol testing policy must be structured; and whether it's legal to reject an applicant who won't submit to a pre-employment drug test.

 

Applicable Law(s): Drug-Free Workplace Act (DFWA)
