Question : Is anyone a volunteer for an organization that does random drug screening? How does that work?
I am a volunteer at a fire department. We are looking to start random drug screening. We would like to get more information about it, but are not having luck finding volunteer organizations who do drug screening.

If it is a volunteer organization, the drug testing has to be voluntary. You can not (as far as I know) require volunteers to partake in the testing.

I am a volunteer at a fire dept too and we’re required to take annual physicals. When I signed up, I was told that even though we are not being paid, it is still considered employment. We even get worker’s compensation. So in every aspect, we are unpaid employees of the local fire dept. Legally, I don’t know if random drug testing could be allowed. It could be made a condition of employment and in our case, a condition of volunteering.
