Legal Question in Constitutional Law in Virginia

Employment Random Drug Testing

I am a tattoo artist who works as a subcontractor for a tattoo shop. THe only type of contract I have with them is a non-compete contract. Can they all-of-a-sudden decide to conduct random drug screenings on us tattoo artists since we are subcontractors? Does this violate my right in any which way, shape or form?

You should, of course, refuse to go along with any such drug screening requests.
