Pat Moore Foundation - Drug Detox Screening that Promotes Safety
Orange County, CA, July 23, 2009 – Since the turn of the century workplace drug testing and pre-employment drug screening tests have become more the norm to help decide whether to promote or deny potential employment.In the past, a company was considered the ‘owner’s company’ and they had the right to know personal particulars; who their employee lived with, what they drank, whether they attended church, and even to what political groups they belonged. However, over time with a heightened awareness of individual rights and the birth of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in 1920 employees began to take their private lives back and insist it was unfair to be scrutinized in such a manner. But, with the advancement of new technologies making it easier to monitor employees’ off-duty activities, many Americans are being subjected to urinalysis drug testing as a condition of keeping their job, promotions, or even getting a job.
“Although we aren’t necessarily in favor of invading anyone’s personal privacy, we do know there is a time to administer a drug and alcohol screen,” says Phil Allen, CEO of the Pat Moore Foundation in Costa Mesa, California. “Drug screening during a stay at our facility especially before a drug detox and drug rehabilitation is imperative to the health and well-being of each and every one of our clients and employees. It would be impossible to help someone if they are being dishonest about their drug and alcohol use.”
Drug testing does vary from state to state and even municipalities. Some states and municipalities encourage a drug detox facility with rehabilitation versus punishment, some employers do not have a zero-tolerance policy and will offer second chance testing, while still some might have legal good cause to fire, deny promotion, and even justifiably refuse to hire the potential employee.
