I have always had employees that were in rehab. But never had anyone using at
work before this guy. He pointed to the fact he has a pot card for anxiety. I
have a card in my pocket that says I am old enough to buy whisky too, but I
doubt any employer would be OK with me sucking a flask while working.
I know certain prescription conventional drugs can make you not safe to operate
equipment. But this guy had to operate equipment as part of his job. I would
make an accommodation for someone that had pain meds temporarily that left them
a bit impaired but not as an every day thing.
This guy was MAX drama too. One thing I tell everyone when I hire them, the
only thing I really care about is no drama. Do not bring your drama to work.

work schedule.
…..which I would do anyway. If they’re working on getting straight I don’t
want to stand in their way. I don’t know if anyone goes to rehab for pot
though. Probably not.

Utah code 26-61a-111(4)..
"Nothing in this section requires a private employer to accommodate the use
of medical cannabis or affects the ability of a private employer to have
policies restricting the use of medical cannabis by applicants or employees."
There are also federal court cases where the court has determined that
marijuana use is not subject to the ADA.

If an employee has a prescription for pot for anxiety do we have to allow
