Benefits of drug testing
* Reduced insurance premiums: Many states offer discounts on workers' compensation insurance premiums to companies with certified drug-free workplace programs.
* Deters drug use: The implementation of random drug testing can serve as a deterrent to drug use among employees. A federal government study found that 40% of full-time employees who used illicit drugs said they would be less likely to work for a company with random drug testing.
