Sure. Everything on paper and signed though. In most cases a "drug-free workplace" requires potential employees to sign an agreement prior to hire to submit for drug testing upon request. This agreement or other company policy often establishes refusal to submit to test as grounds for the same action as a drug-postive test result. Laws will vary from country to country and state to state as to adequate grounds for termination.

Can an employer terminate you for a text sent off the clock?

Generally, unless you have an employment contract, your employment relationship is considered as "at-will" which means that either the employer or the employee may break the relationship with no liability. In fact, the doctrine recognizes the right of the employer to dismiss his employee "for good cause, or bad cause, or no cause at all." Thus, an employer can terminate an employee even a text message is sent off the clock -- the only exception would be if the termination was based on discrimination, breach of contract, retaliation, or if it against public policy.
