Legal Question in Employment Law in California
Legal limits of ''Observed urine sample submission''
What are (if any) the legal limits of intrusion? In regard
to exposure of genitalia, while submitting a urine sample at
at a collection site run by private enterprise? For purposes other than law enforcement?

Re: Legal limits of ''Observed urine sample submission''
If you are in a safety-sensitive industry, drug tests are required post-accident and may be required randomly, as well. These included monitored tests. How far can them go is an open question. However, they want to make sure you don't remove a substance from under your clothes to doctor the sample.
If it is an industry that is not safety sensitive, then there are major privacy issues with regard to providing a drug test in the first place. Please let me know which it is. -Robert
