If drug testing only showed what you did at work, you’d be right.

But it shows what you do outside of work as well and, more often than not, that’s not your employer’s business

If you show up for your shift with your ability impaired to work productively and safely, then your employer needs to have the right to send you home.
The better argument against testing is that someone who is not impaired may yet have trace amounts of alcohol or drugs in their bodies, and it is this information which the employer should not be entitled to keep or use in any way.
