Well, previous comments have been made on this subject. In most cases, the potential employee (reader in this case) does not pay for the background checks, drug tests and the like. The employer usually does; in this case, that would be the state social services program. If I were paying a reader out of my own pocket, I would be obligated to pay for such tests if I bothered. When I hired readers in the past for my own use at my own expense, I just hired someone I knew fairly well and felt I could trust her. On Fri, 25 Jan 2002, Maurice A.
