Can my current employer still test me for marijuana use?
Yes. The ordinance applies only to pre-employment drug screenings. The law does not require employers to change their existing workplace drug policies, so your current employer can still test you for cannabis use.
“What this says is they can’t ask you to perform a drug test, which is a huge look at your health and at your bodily fluids, just to apply for a job,” said Chris Goldstein, regional organizer for the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws.
Can employers still test me for other drugs?
Yes. The law applies only to marijuana testing, so you may still need to take a drug test for other substances before you’re hired.
