    They should be yes. The only time mandatory pre-screening should be acceptable is if your job requires zero intoxication to legally perform your job. Like operating machinery, driving, etc. Beyond that it should only come up if there is good reason to believe that you are using and it is affecting your performance. Then you should be given the option to go through treatment before being fired comes up as an option.

      You’re saying the opposite of what I’m saying.

      I’m saying that if drug screening is a requirement for assistance, it should be a requirement for all paychecks as well.

      Otherwise, you’re just punishing poor people for doing the same things people aren’t poor do- get addicted to drugs.
