I understand that there is quite a lot of talk about drug testing for
employees. I would like to add my comment to this forum...
DRUGS ARE ILLEGAL. If you are not a law abiding citizen, do you not
believe that an employer has the right to know? Do you not understand that
drugs can have make a major impact on the productivity of ones work?
Furthermore, if one is a drug user, and can not lay off the drugs long
enough to take a test for an upcoming position for employment, this may be
an indication that there is an even greater problem, the person may be an
addict, hence a downfall of problems would then follow.
Yes, we all have our right to privacy, however, you are hired by a company
to be productive and mentally capable of handling the position offered. If
you can not even stay off drugs long enough to clean out your system to
take a stupid drug test, you obviously are not the type of person that an
employer looks for. Is it fair to have them hire you without a drug test,
and then find out 2 weeks later that you are a junkie who is not capable of
performing the duties expected of them?
