In the case of O'Connor v. Ortega, what did the Supreme Court determine was sufficient for testing workers?

In the case of O'Connor v. Ortega, the Supreme Court established that reasonable suspicion of drug or alcohol use is a sufficient basis for testing employees. This ruling recognizes the balance between an employee's privacy rights and the need for employers to maintain a safe and productive workplace. In situations where there is reasonable suspicion, it allows employers to conduct drug or alcohol testing to ensure that employee behavior does not jeopardize the safety and integrity of the work environment. This legal precedent reinforces the idea that when there are observable signs or credible reports of substance abuse, employers have a legitimate interest in verifying employee fitness for duty, thereby prioritizing workplace safety and efficiency.
