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.
A drug is a substance that people take to cure a sickness or relieve pain and is usually prescribed by a practicing doctor, but there are other types of drugs that are mostly self prescribed that are not for relieving pain but for pleasure or ecstasy and this mostly affect the nervous system. The continuous use of this kind of drugs makes one an addict of that substance.
Unlike in a state like west Virginia, where drug testing is not a requirement, some companies have a mandatory law that their employees have to be drug free before beginning to work for them and they are again tested annually or biannually to make sure they are clean. In West Virginia, the law of making the testing mandatory is yet to be passed.
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.
