I read an article in the latest trade rag that suggested that a few large employers in the Electrical Industry here (mainly Lines Companies) want to institute a system of regularly testing thier employees for evidence of Drugs and Alcohol in thier systems, anyone that failed, would be sent home and would not be re-hired until they tested negative.
What do you guys think of this?.
Considering that the limit of alcohol was not mentioned, I reckon that this may be open to a "Kangaroo Court system", being started up, to punish workers that Management don't like, after all, there was no mention of WHO would be doing the actual testing of the Urine samples.
Sure it may be good for Workplace Safety, but, this could also be used as a tool to dismiss perfectly good employees, after a good night out.
Am I just being paranoid?. [Linked Image]
