The misuse of drugs in the work place is well publicized. Drugs are costing the American business community billions of dollars every year. Consider the loss of productivity, medical expenses, absenteeism and work-place crime related to drug abuse; all affecting your bottom line. Drug abuse is not isolated to a few "types" of employees or even a certain type of company. They are as prevalent on Main Street as they are on Wall Street.
When To Drug Test
Drug Testing is used most frequently during the pre-employment process; however, testing current employees is on the increase. It may be used in response to a specific incident for the purpose of taking punitive action or initiating rehabilitation. The first step would be to develop a comprehensive policy as discussed in the Drug Free Work Place Act of 1991. Legal counsel is strongly advised.
