You are the assistant HR manager at the regional office of Quickie-Mart, Inc., a chain of convenience stores. The store manager at the Dover store informs you that she has noticed a decline in cash receipts of several cashiers over the last month or two. She wants to force the cashiers to take polygraph tests to

“see which ones are stealing from us.” Can you require the cashiers to take a polygraph test? Can the cashiers who refuse to take a polygraph test be fired?

Under what circumstances, if any, can the cashiers be subjected to polygraph testing? Explain.
