The Physical Touch

Drug Screening
Drug Screening
Humans need physical touch. We really need physical touch. However, even with our great nation being, overall, an extroverted people, we do not receive or give each other enough of this human contact that is so important. Human touch is one of the primary ways in which we comfort each other, console each other, and reassure each other. Words don’t cut it. Physical touch shows us that we, as humans, are connected and that we all care about each other in a very real sense.
Fortunately, through things like sex and touch therapy, humans are relearning our primal instincts, instincts which we have in some ways suppressed in this day and age of harassment lawsuits and professional behavior.
Of course, context is important. You still need to maintain a professional distance from people with whom you work. However, in the comfort of your own home, it is okay to hug your loved ones, and to kiss and make love to your spouse. Often, context is forgotten after office workshops delineating appropriate behavior, and we all tend to carry some of that “don’t get too close” mentality home with us, thus inadvertently snubbing our loved ones and denying ourselves the physical touch we crave so much.
In addition to all of the above stated benefits, physical touch calms us down and leaves us with a feeling of belonging and community, without over thinking or distractedly trying to systematize our relationships with other people. Employee drug screening goes a long way to defining appropriate behavior regarding drug abuse or alcohol drinking while on the worksite or before coming to the jobsite, but it also sets a standard by which appropriate action can be measured. Since legal limits and scientific data have already been defined, it is easy to just look at the numbers and see if someone has been following the rules or not.
Without appropriate action after drug and alcohol testing has been implemented, addicts may take physical touch to an inappropriate level, and that destroys the context of the professional demeanor. Mediscreen is NATA accredited for workplace drug testing, and we are here to help you set up onsite drug and alcohol screening in your own business.
