On Tuesday, Amazon announced that they would be updating their drug testing policy, and will no longer be including marijuana as part of their drug screening programs. In addition, the Big Tech giant stated that they would &#8220;actively&#8221; support the Marijuana Opportunity Reinvestment and Expungement Act of 2021 (MORE Act), which would legalize marijuana at the federal level and expunge criminal records.
“In addition to changing our Time off Task policy, we’re adjusting our drug testing policy. In the past, like many employers, we’ve disqualified people from working at Amazon if they tested positive for marijuana use,” Amazon’s Worldwide Consumer CEO, Dave Clark, announced in a <a href="https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/operations/update-on-our-vision-to-be-earths-best-employer-and-earths-safest-place-to-work">blog post</a>. “However, given where state laws are moving across the U.S., we’ve changed course. We will no longer include marijuana in our comprehensive drug screening program for any positions not regulated by the Department of Transportation, and will instead treat it the same as alcohol use. We will continue to do impairment checks on the job and will test for all drugs and alcohol after any incident.”
