The California Drug Testing Employer Reference Guide
California employers have the right to maintain a drug and alcohol-free workplace, including the ability to prohibit the possession, use, cultivation, and distribution of drugs in the workplace. To make this a little more challenging, the State’s Constitution recognizes a right to privacy and protection for citizens from unreasonable searches. Courts have ruled that a drug test is certainly a type of search and therefore, any drug testing program or individual test must be deemed “reasonable.”
It is unlawful for California employers to discriminate against applicants/employees for the use of cannabis off the job and away from the workplace and they are prohibited from requesting information from job applicants during the hiring process regarding prior use of cannabis.
