With the state of Ohio allowing the sale of nonmedical cannabis, people may be wondering if marijuana will be dropped from their employer’s drug tests. From a sampling of workplaces in and around Toledo, probably not. “Rather than relying on one-time, pre-employment marijuana testing, our organization prioritizes ensuring that all employees understand our policy and their duty to promptly report any observed behavior consistent with being under the influence of substances strictly prohibited by our policy,” Tausha Moore, associate vice president for Strategic Communications at ProMedica, said in a statement. “ProMedica has a Fitness for Duty policy and requires all employees to complete online training on the topic annually. The policy states that being under the influence of a drug, marijuana or alcohol on the job is prohibited. Currently, there are no plans to modify this policy, as it is designed to ensure the safety of everyone at our facilities.”
