GENERAL COMMENTS: This is a “mandatory” state, meaning, if an employer chooses to conduct drug or alcohol testing such tests must be conducted per state law, which contains significant, and somewhat confusing, limitations/requirements on who, what, where, when and how workplace testing may be conducted.
The new amendments to the Americans with Disabilities Act could limit who, how and when testing is conducted.
