C. if you use these tests, your company will join over 70 percent of major companies that test workers and job applicants.

The answer is option C. if you use these tests, your company will join over 70 percent of major companies that test workers and job applicants.

Explanation:

According to recent statistics, an estimated 70 percent companies with more than 2, 500 employees predominately use pre-employment drug test.

The position of the United States Supreme Court as regards Pre-Employment Drug test is the use of minimally intrusive procedures which are not harmful to job applicants or employees such as both blood and urine collection.

They are to be conducted in the employment environment without direct observation by the tester. In other words, it may be an invasion of privacy for an employer to require a job applicant to provide a urine sample while other people are in the room watching.
