DRUG TESTING

The recent changes in Oklahoma’s Workers’ Compensation law allow for employers to drug test persons injured on the job.  Post accident testing can occur whether or not there is reasonable suspicion that drugs played a part in the work related injury.  If the accident results in “property damage” to things at work, someone with drugs or alcohol in his system may be responsible for repairs to this equipment up to five hundred dollars ($500.00).  Proof that drugs and alcohol are in the system, even though they may not be the cause of the injury, will result in the burden of proof shifting against the employee injured on the job.  In other words, the injured worker must prove that the drugs or alcohol did not play a part in the incident causing the injury.
