I'm not so sure I would want to drug test everyone. Lets face it, its not easy to find good kids to do the dirty end of this job. If I'm going to be drug testing all the 20-25 year range laborers, I'm not sure I'm going to have any workers.
Secondly, do you really need a drug test to know someone is doing drugs. Hey, maybe one of the younger guys goes to a college party and parties a little too hard. Ok. I don't think that is what I'm concerned about.
What is a concern is that 30+ year old guy who comes in everyday, with the smell of alcohol sweating out of his pores by 9 am in the morning.
I don't think you need a drug test to know someone is doing drugs or drinking. What I think you need is the guts to tell the guy to stop doing it or he's fired. It seems like drug testing is more or less another one of these 'politically' correct things we have to do these days in order to fire someone.
I don't think drug testing is going to improve the labor pool. I think it is going to shrink it down, and how much more of a smaller labor pool do we need in this industry?
