    Post: not heard

    Posted by francy on 6/06/08


    I am a legal researcher, to be sure, but not in the classic
    sense. I have spent years studying a few subjects that
    impact, pretty seriously, many people everyday. Most
    lawyers I have spoken to are not well versed in the details
    of federally mandated drug testing. All truck drivers,
    airline pilots and flight attendants and so on, must submit
    to testing. The CFRs spell out very clearly the procedures
    for these types of tests and commercial enterprize perform
    the testing. These regulations (CFR) define the rights of
    participants and explain the proceedures to implement them.
    The Supreme Court has permitted such testing, however,
    certain protocol must be followed. For example, the "random
    selection" of employees must be scientifically
    verifiable. "Choosing" instead of "random selecting" is
    forbidden. If people believe they've been selected and want
    to challenge the "science" of the selection method, I can't
    find information anywhere that informs how to do this.
    Trying to get answers from the D.O.T., I found nothing
    useful. One testing giant sent me a generic one page form,
    but it did not verify the science. They were offended when
    I told them about this.
    Does anyone share my interest in examining whether the
    Constitutional provisions are protecting millions?
