		(2)  random, unannounced drug testing of each employee 
who has direct contact with a child in the care of the facility;
		(3)  drug testing of an employee against whom there is 
an allegation of drug abuse; and
		(4)  drug testing of an employee whom the department is 
investigating for the abuse or neglect of a child in the care of the 
facility, if the allegation of abuse or neglect includes 
information that provides good cause to suspect drug abuse.
