Colorado? Washington?
    #17754316 - 02/06/13 06:52 AM (11 years, 12 days ago)

So while lying in bed last night in between my wakeful reality and blissful dream world where Jennifer Lawrence was waiting for me a question popped in my head...if you live in either states and work for/apply to "company x" that drug screens would detection of THC in your system still affect said job though marijuana is no longer illegal?

If they are "at-will" states then the legality of weed probably doesn't matter.  I think the employer can screen you for THC and not hire you if that is their policy.

Yep a bunch of national corporations in colorado still drug test and they can fire you for a positive marijuana sample.  While I was unemployed, I smoked pretty infrequently so I could pass their drug test if need be.  Thankfully it didn't come to that.

Yep, there is nothing in the Colorado legislation that says employers must attune their business to the law. There should be, but there isn't.

I compare it to drinking.

You can't show up to work drunk yet alcohol is still legal.

That doesn't work as well because I can show up to work hungover as hell and sweating alcohol, and still not be fired, because I'm not fucked up. Weed in your system is another thing, isn't it? I did talk to the assistant DA in Denver about it and he said they are working on ways to test "active" THC in blood levels, but nothing soon.

Employers and corporations can still make their own rules about whether they hire or dont hire for things like that.

Jobs can even turn you away for being a cigarette smoker, and it isnt illegal.

Yeah, there are very few things that an empoyer can not discriminate against. Unfortunately, being a pot smoker is not one of them. I know of some trucking companies that will not hire you if you drink alcohol, on or off the job.
