Facts About Drug Testing During Hiring

This is one of the issues we discussed in class yesterday... pot smokers beware!


"State Law

Each state has its own body of laws governing workplace drug testing or monitoring. For example, Alaska has no mandatory drug-testing laws, but does have voluntary drug-testing laws that employers must follow if they choose to conduct drug testing of job applicants or employees.

In many states, employers have the legal right to test job applicants for drugs or alcohol, provided that the applicants know that the testing is part of the interview process for all employees. In most cases, the testing cannot be conducted until the applicant has been offered a position."

more info on the site....
but... there are other sites that explain how to fool the drug tests!
