Regarding @rbt earlier comment this is purely random and picked by a computer. The Star article explains the process.
Yeah, I know what the article says. I still see plenty of room to fiddle with the selection pool. My experience is south of Canada with private firms and yes i do realize I'm biased based on previous experience but TTC management has consistently shown similarly poor methodology with their KPI design in CEO reports.
Anyway, addicts don't really change without outside help; they just get better at hiding it. That's why Portugal's drug law changes have been so effective; it removed reasons to hide and strongly encourages (enforces) 3rd party assistance.
If TTC results get much better between month 1 and month 12 without a large turnover a staff; I'll remain suspicious about the real effectiveness of the program versus what is documented. The union also has an interest to show substantial improvement so they can argue for reduced testing in future contract negotiations now that the bad weeds are gone; perhaps reducing candidate selection to new staff (first couple years) or something.
