HRS §329B-3
Who can require drug tests and who pays for them
This section limits who can ask for a drug test. A third party cannot require, request, or suggest a test that does not meet this chapter's rules, except for certain federal or state transportation rules. The third party must pay all test costs, including confirmatory tests. The department or approved lab certifying agencies can check lab records for compliance, and breath tests for alcohol are allowed.

The statute, as written — Limitations
No third party shall require, request, or suggest that any individual submit to a substance abuse test that does not meet all the requirements of this chapter except for third parties who are covered by a drug testing regulation adopted by the department of transportation or the United States Department of Transportation or any other federal agencies. All costs, including confirmatory testing costs, shall be paid for by the third party. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to preclude the department or any laboratory certifying agency approved by the director from examining the records of laboratories, including substance abuse on-site screening locations, licensed for substance abuse testing to ascertain compliance with licensure or certification requirements, or to preclude the administration of breath tests to determine the alcohol content of the tested individual's blood for purposes of this chapter.
