I suppose the background of drug screening is that in the 90's Federal Law made it mandatory for all DOT regulated companies to submit to random screenings and pre-employment. Drug Free Workplaces followed pretty quickly. It's a tool companies use to combat many things as studies have shown individuals who use drugs & alcohol are less productive, absent more, etc. (not saying I agree or disagree)

I used to work for a drug & alcohol testing consortium. It exploded with business with the change in law. I would say 4 of the 5 companies I worked for since then did drug screening.
