Management's Unilateral Implementation Of Drug Testing Programs: Are The Unions Left Holding The Jar, Royce Robert Remington

Cleveland State Law Review

This Note demonstrates that organized labor's effectiveness in negotiation is imperative to the adequate protection of its members from invasive drug testing procedures. Negotiation must be achieved by asserting that drug testing is a mandatory subject of bargaining for the reasons set forth in section III.
