Can an employer investigate a sickday note's authenticity?
The only thing an employer should accept as evidence of a sick day is a doctor's certificate, and they are exactly for the purpose of recording that a particular doctor saw a patient at a particular time. If you are given one you have every right to check its authenticity with the doctor
Is it illegal for an employer to drug test for a post accident 36 hrs after the incident Even when they were notified when the accident occurred?
Many employers have drug policies that include random drug screens or drug screens following an event. Would't you agree that it would be reasonable for an employer to have the right to know if an employee uses drugs which of course is a symptom of extremely poor judgment? Employees who use drugs are far more accident prone. Wouldn't everyone agree that an employer should minimize his risk?

Does your employer have the right to suggest that you are manic depressive and should take drugs?
Your employer most certainly has the right to make a suggestion. Of course, you have the right to respectfully decline. If your employer insists you take drugs for a mental disorder "diagnosed" by this employer, you have the right to respectfully inform this employer that it is illegal to practice and prescribe medicine without a license to do so. Unless, of course, your employer is a licensed practitioner of mental disorders, but even then, you have the right to respectfully decline.
Is an employer legally allowed to ask an employee why he orshe is calling out sick?
They can try to call them, but the doctor is not allowed to give out any information about you. The doctor might be able to say "yes s/he came in today"/"no s/he didn't come in". But the doctor is not allowed to give out the reason why you went in, since this would be a breach of the Doctor-Patient Confidentiality and therefore illegal. In summary- The doctor can say whether you have seen him/her on that day. But the doctor cannot tell the employer why, if you did, you went to see the doctor, unless the doctor has your permission to do so.

Medical info is strictly confidential. Your Doctor has to give a written statement to your employer that explains your limitations but not your illness. I do not think even the court can subpoena the medical records due to national Doctor - Patient laws.
