She could check the fine print of her contract - there might be some get-out within that.
Or she could try and dissuade her employers with the threat of legal action, launched to protect her human rights and fundamental right to privacy.
Best of luck to her - assuming she's not in a critical position, ensuring the safety of Other's lives, it is a fucking disgrace that these sort of tests are allowed.
Quite how draconian measures like these protect a society where upto 30% of people are already (quite contentedly) habitual 'drugs users' is beyond me.
Is it right that a company can dictate what its employees do at weekends?
You'd have thought that, within a democracy, people would be relatively free to do as they please - as long as they're not directly harming anyone else.
Is that so ludicrous?
Fuck Their Righteousness.

i dunno, i'm not for drug testing. but if she signed a contract agreeing to be tested, why would she risk it?
- monkeyshine0
just say no...
to drug testing. seriously. if everyone (unless your job involves the safety of others beyond weilding an xacto) said no, it wouldn't be done so freely.

who requires a hair drug test?
- uberdesigner0
They ask you if you want a 'sample' taken from your arm or leg, then they shave no shit about a 5 inch by 2 inch patch of hair. You look like a fuckin freak until it grows back.

' do you take drugs?'
'Yes.'

Your hair follicles have your whole history of drug use in them, so exacting that they can almost date it.
You can't do anything. The shampoos don't work.
