Best Answer

Business owners have the right to search persons and their cars, however this should be communicated as part of the company policy. Businesses tend to use the "health and safety" as their right to search (eg: drugs, weapons) and where businesses have loss of stock or they deal with "high Commodities" etc, the law allows them to put safety measures in place.
