A union challenges drug testing provisions in a collective bargaining agreement.

Covered employees include probation or parole officers who have regular unsupervised access to and direct contact with probationers or parolees; non-custodial prison employees who have regular unsupervised access to and direct contact with prisoners (including athletic and program coordinators, chaplains, counselors, therapists, special education teachers, dietician/nutritionists, and general office assistants); and medical workers in prisons and mental health facilities (including nurses, occupational therapists, psychologists, social workers, psychiatrists, physicians, and dentists).
