A bill for an act concerning private sector employee drug testing.

This bill amends Iowa law concerning private sector employee drug testing, affecting both employers and employees. It clarifies that "safety-sensitive positions" are those designated by the employer and allows for electronic or in-person delivery of drug test notifications and requests, if the employee chooses this option over certified mail. The bill also modifies civil remedies for violations, specifying that employers are liable, requiring attorney fees to be reasonable, and placing the burden on the employee to prove that a violation directly caused damages. Additionally, it removes the employer's burden to prove compliance in actions alleging a drug testing violation.
