I was observed during Pre-Emp Urine test

Yeah you could be right.

I'm just wondering if there was a genuine change in the law lately.

I'm googling and binging trying to find if this is indeed the law.

So far I've found nothing officially saying they can legally observe you right off the bat with no reasonable suspicion.

 

When I was in the military we'd be observed and it would literally be a dozen or more in a large bathroom with multiple urinals and there were some that would get ' stage fright' and not be able to produce a sample. One female soldier I knew had that problem and they ended up putting her in a private room with an observer and she wasn't allowed to leave until she produced which she said took 4 hours.

I'd rather not see trucking degenerate into all of us being treated like criminals in the name of safety.

 

I will ask my new employer if they knew/requested this as well. Though I don't start for 2 weeks ( just gave my current job notice) I got hit with a random few weeks ago with my current employer and it was not observed, so something doesn't add up here.

 

That was 20 yrs ago.

I didn't like it then, and I don't like it now.
