The Beginning of the Year
With the year 2004 almost behind us it is a good idea for all of us to find some worth wild aims and goals to commit to for the year 2005. For corporations the new year brings new budgets and new corporate policy. Many times this means new drug testing policy and guidelines, and the money to fund drug testing programs. Since it is well know by the HR people that the holidays is the time most likely time for a person to participate in recreational drug use it is doubly important for the person faced with a drug testing situation to be prepared during this very critical period.
Here are a list of reasons why a corporation would want to drug test shortly after the 1st of the year:
1) Insurance requirements may require corporations to drug test their employees.
2) The corporation wants to lay off people, but wants to use a positive drug test as the reason so they will not have to pay any benefits.
3) A new Random Drug Testing program has been implemented in the corporation and it starts after the first of the year. Before drug testing was only required during preemployment.
Whatever the reason is it is very critical for YOU - the employee to be prepared for any drug testing situation that might arise. I say this in very strong terms as I have seen it time and time again that a person is not prepared for his/her drug test and they come to us seeking help for a drug test they have already taken.
I want to make it very clear to all the people that rely on TESTCLEAR products that we can not help you after you have TESTED POSITIVE. You must be prepared at all times, and being prepared in a job situation means that you should have the Powdered Urine Kit on hand just in case.

I was recently violated by PPG Industries just before Christmas and I have to say it was a truly humiliating experience. What is being done to help the employees of this country to defend themselves against this random hair testing rape? I think I got an ulcer wondering whether my career would be snuffed out by some lab tech and a machine.
I work in an ISO 9000 enviroment and see mistakes made everyday. For everyone out there that is perfectly innocent and is subjected to this, you have my sympathy. There is nothing that can be done. They will treat you like a piece of property and to hell with your freedoms or rights. Then they will collaborate on how to justify these injustices. Just tell the truth, it's all about the money. Insurance cost savings. Contact Chuck Bunch, COO , PPG Industries and tell him to stop this incredibly intrusive violation of perfectly good and innocent employees.
