    Drug tests at work pick up steroids?

    Im a security officer. Im wondering if steroids show up in regular drug tests. SO... DO THEY? lol
    Or does the test have to be specifically for steroids to detect them?

    Your talking about a corticosteroid. What does that have to do with anything?

    Most likely they will not test you for steroids. Actually, it's very unlikely.

    steroid test i believe are done to curb an individual's need to increase and improve perfomance to get an edge over the others through unfair, unhealthy and unfair means. your job profile shudnt augment it.
