The Benefits Of West Virginia Drug Testing

By Sharron Cantu


Any kind of addiction needs to be taken care of. This can only be done with the consent of the person involved. However, in West Virginia drug testing is not a requirement especially in the private sector. The law has not been passed in this state to make it a must.

When one is sick and they go to see a doctor, whatever they are given to relieve their pain or to treat them is called a drug. This is usually only taken on prescription by the doctor. There are others that are taken not for any ailment but just for one to feel good or high get high. When they get used to it they become addicts and they cannot do anything without it.

In most countries or states, it is common law or necessity or even a requirement that employers carry out a drug test to their employees especially before they are hired, so as to ensure they have staff who are capable of working well. This is not a new thing in the states. The tests are again done after some time of working the company.

Some people feel that making them take the test is some sort of punishment, they do not understand that it is for their well being, to make them stay clean and healthy. The effect of the workers who do drugs on a company are so many like, they slow down productivity, some become rude and even violent and they do not listen to their superiors. They do as they feel and that affects how the work is done in a company.

The well being of some workers is not that important to their employers. All they care about are is making money. As long as an employee works they are good to go, their health is their problem. They have no time or money to order for their employees tests. They feel it is all a waste of their resources. If an employee blunders in any way they are just relieved of their duties.

In some workplaces, they even have training programs where they educate their workers on the dangers of drugs and the benefits of the tests, making them understand that it is for their own good and for the betterment of their health in general.

We can therefore see that the benefits of drug testing are immense. When a community is educated on that, we can have a drug free state. Children grow up knowing that drugs that are not given by a doctor are not good and it could make them unhealthy people in the society. It breeds a retardant society which is of no good at all, putting their heath in danger.

It is not a bad idea making it a must for people to be tested. They can even do it to older school children as some of them get the addiction from their parents or siblings. Some get it from their peers when they sometimes want to fit in.
