Our company only performs drug testing when it is specifically required for a particular customer to do business with us, and only for those staff who will be working on-site with that customer. However, employees are not drug-tested as a condition of employment with us.

Our company did release guidance on cannabis use upon legalization, and basically the guidance is the same as alcohol: being under the influence of an intoxicant is not permitted at work, or at company-sponsored social events. If you are going to partake in alcohol or recreational cannabis, you can't / aren't supposed to return to work until you're sober.

The fun part of that is that alcohol is absolutely permitted at company-sponsored social events, and people get absolutely blitzed. I suspect there will be a lot of high-as-a-kite recreational cannabis users at our upcoming Christmas party.

Medical cannabis is, as it always has been, evaluated on a case-by-case basis. So I can still use CBD strains without running foul of the policy as I've already cleared it with HR. I seldom do, but I'm allowed to if I decided I could benefit from a little added focus at home.
