I think the point of the tests is like vaccination. It’s about reducing risk. And it errs on the side of caution. A test won’t catch every instance of drug use, but will catch a drug usage behavior pattern. You want people who are trustworthy to never do it because you can’t test everyone all the time. It’s more about personal responsibility.

A pre-shift only needs to fail once and you have a co-workers recklessness injuring another worker.

I wonder what unions think of drug tests? As a union member I might prefer that my coworkers were tested to be honest if I worked closely with them around heavy machinery.
