Overview: The article says that business owners have the legal right to insist on a drug-free workplace, enforcing that right can be a contentious issue. Any steps you take to maintain a drug-free workplace must respect workers legal rights to privacy and nondiscrimination. Many employers, especially small business owners, rely on interviews and background checks to identify drug users. Many drug users are adept at hiding their drug habits, however, and they easily sail through interviews and background checks. But before you implement such a policy, make sure you understand how the law governs drug testing.
