In the US, the work place can test you. It may be "assault" to test you with out your consent, so here they deal with that by saying if you don't consent, you in effect quit your job. (Actually, this newspaper really misses the mark completely here: saying consent to random drug tests as a condition of employment is "assault" is as incorrect and saying a requirement to be at work for 8 hours is "false imprisonment" -- it's a contract of employeement, and you either consent or don't take the job.) Like any job requirement, you must consent to it as a condition of employment. Any federal position in the US includes a drug test. Federal attorney positions include a drug test and a polygraph where your past drug use is investigated.
I am absolutely against the testing, but I can't argue it's illegal.
