This document outlines an employer's drug testing and marijuana policy for construction workers. It states that marijuana use is strictly prohibited, both on and off duty. Employees are subject to pre-employment, random, post-accident, and reasonable suspicion drug testing. A positive test will result in termination, except for employees who voluntarily come forward, who will receive treatment. The policy aims to maintain a zero-tolerance, safe work environment through consistent enforcement of its guidelines.
