For any injury on the job, the most employers have a drug testing policy. If you refuse to be tested, the employer can terminate you. This is the case even though you may not be claiming it as a work injury. Since there is that possibility, I think the employer can require that you be tested. Unless you are a Union employee, the employer can terminate you for a reason or for no reason as long as he is not dscrminnating against you due to sex, race, religion, etc.
