Should daycare workers be drug tested?

Question

So I just recently found out that a girl I know of is recently sober from a pill addiction, she has been working at a daycare the entire time, and is still at the same daycare newly sober.... 
Shouldn’t anyone who’s meant to take care of young children be drug tested?

Answer

Do you have proof that she was under the influence while working? I don’t feel that people should lose their job over something that happens outside of work unless it is affecting their performance.

Answer

Yes. I was a teacher for my 4 year old class, and my assistant continued showing up clearly on something and everyday I reported her to the director but she didn’t believe me. One day I had my wisdom teeth extracted and only worked half day. I once again told the director of her intoxication but nothing was done. When I came back to work the next day I was told she was let go. Apparently after I left she took the kids outside for play. Only when she came back inside she forgot one who wondered into the parking lot only to be found by her own parent driving up to pick her up from school.

Answer

I work at a daycare and I think absolutely yes. Daycare workers should be drug tested. I’ve seen and witnessed some crazy things.

Answer

I can see where you are coming from but if they start doing that then where does it stop? Anyone who works with children? Anyone in the medical profession? Anyone who drives anything? The list could go on...

Answer

I know for a fact that they don’t even drug test potential DCS workers in my state. I know because I worked there as a CPS investigator. Someone even asked our trainer if they drug tested and he said then half the department would be gone. I was floored when I heard this

Answer

Are you willing for your tuition to go up to pay for the drug testing?
