Is an agent white or blue collar?

An agent can be considered white collar, as they typically work in office settings and engage in tasks that require specialized knowledge, such as negotiating deals, managing relationships, or providing expert advice. Their work often involves mental rather than physical labor, distinguishing them from blue-collar workers, who are typically involved in manual labor or skilled trades. However, the specific classification can depend on the industry and nature of the agent's role.

How would the parents of a worker who was shot and killed by an ex-employee while performing his duty at work start a claim?

There are different claims that can be filed by the parents of a worker who was shot and killed by an ex-employee while at work. While wrongful death is certainly an appropriate lawsuit to file against the ex-employee, the parents may also consider the liability of the owner of the premises/employer as they may also be held liable if a person is injured or killed on the premises of another by a third person's wrongful act or inadequate security.

It would be advisable to seek the services of an attorney to ascertain which claim would be more fruitful. Just make sure the lawyer you talk to specializes in such cases.

Does an employer in Texas have to provide workmen's compensation insurance for an employee if that person has their own private insurance?

Texas is the only state were an employee does not have to have workers' comp insurance. Instead they can have a private accident insurance plan. But they must have one or the other. AN employer can exclude contract employees from coverage under their plan (at least in Texas).

Do they drug test on a functional capacity test?

No, if it is a functional capacity evaluation test then there should not be any drug testing. That is not the purpose of an FCE. They will probably ask you what kind of prescription medicines you are taking, if any, and possibly if you have had any prior drug or alcohol related treatment, but if so it will (or should) stay strictly within the medical records and not be shown to the employer. Medical information not related to the ability to perform the essential functions of a job should not be shared with an employer unless authorized by the client. Indergard vs. Georgia-Pacific made it very clear that a return to work, same job, same employer evaluation is judged by the EEOC interpretation of the ADA. Medical data can only be shared on a safety-based need to know basis.
