“Companies open themselves up to liability hiring someone who tested positive to a legal substance and then causes an accident that could be blamed on that substance intoxication.”
Then don’t hire them if they screen positive. You don’t have to.
I’m for making it legal and taxed, but would not hire anyone who had it in their system when tested. I bought a company once who had an employee practically put his eye out with a screwdriver when he was high on MJ at work. We hadn’t tested existing employees yet.
Needless to say, he was not invited back to the party.

What an incompetent. Eye work takes a socket wrench.
