However the MAIN REASON for an employer to test for drugs including marijuana, and maybe the only reason, is to negate an injury if it occurs while the person is using.

So why is the impairing drug alcohol rarely if ever tested for?

It is tested all the time for injuries by companies that have smart drug testing policies.

I worked in a JAG unit & conducted drug separation boards & asked the same question. The lawyers replied that alcohol is not an illegal substance; only its abuse is actionable.
