Would the test screen for drugs and alcohol or would they be done separately? If it were being done twice a year, I assume one test could test for drugs and alcohol. It is putting great emphasis on an employer, especially somebody who took cocaine. While one might notice if a person were drunk - they would be falling all over the place or there might be other signs - one would not notice if a person had taken prescribed drugs or serious drugs.
