You are a supervisor responsible for a team of phlebotomists in a busy county hospital. Describe reasons why an employee drug testing program may be helpful to you as a supervisor
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: As a supervisor it is important that your workforce be as fit and able as possible to conduct their work duties in a professional and competent manner. Employers should have definitive guidelines for when and how drug testing may occur for employees and you should be informed of these. Drug tests are sometimes required to comply with contract or grants, or to identify users in order to refer them for counseling and guidance, to investigate the reasons for an incident or accident, and most importantly to help avoid harm to patients or to the workers themselves. Do not ignore suspicious behaviors among employees. If there are reasons to suspect that an employee is impaired due to drugs, follow procedures for referring the employee before he or she injures him- or herself or someone else.
