Employers can NOW refuse to hire or maintain employment of workers using LEGAL substances. My wife works at a firm that tests potential and current employees for use of illegal drugs, plus tobacco and alcohol. A few years ago, they were trying to hire a tool and die maker and needed to reject several candidates before they could find one who hadn’t had a few beers over the weekend.
I have to tell you, it’s this guy’s business and he can do as he pleases, but I hate, hate the fact that people are always trying to run your life...a few beers on the weekend does not effect a job...what ever happened to privacy? If I found out such a policy existed, I would not do business with this owner. Wow, it’s like prohibition all over again...if it’s fun they don’t want you to do it...and no I don’t smoke pot or drink much for that matter. I just think when I’m not working I should be able to and it’s no ones business.
