  • This is pretty much how it is in the US. If an employee’s drug use is a potential serious liability, most insurance companies require drug testing for them to insure you (generally, I can’t imagine companies want to drug test because it is actually quite expensive). Like in the construction industry, a lot of companies drug test because you really shouldn’t have someone on drugs operating heavy machinery and you sure as shit won’t get insured if you dont. I can’t speak to the companies that do it regardless of liability concerns but I work in an engineering position for a large company and no one is drug tested. In fact, no company I have worked for has drug tested.
