STATE OF MICHIGAN CONSIDERS ENDING MOST CANNABIS DRUG TESTING

Ma*****na Moment shares that Michigan officials are proposing to end pre-employment drug testing for ma*****na for most government job applicants, while also giving people who’ve already been penalized over positive THC tests an opportunity to have the sanction retroactively rescinded:

The Michigan Civil Service Commission released the proposed amendments to the government’s employment code on Friday, opening a public comment period on the two policies.

“Michigan voters legalized ma*****na’s medicinal use in 2008 and recreational use by adults in 2018,” John Gnodtke, the state personnel director, wrote in a memo. “In light of these changes, commissioners have requested circulation for public comment of potential regulation amendments to end the preemployment-testing requirement for ma*****na for classified employees hired into non-test-designated positions.”

“Ending this pre-employment testing for ma*****na would not affect the availability of reasonable-suspicion or follow-up testing for ma*****na of classified employees, including candidates who become employees,” the notice says.

The first change would amend existing code that says state agencies must drug test applicants for cannabis and other substances by adding language saying “except that an appointing authority shall not require testing for ma*****na for a pre‐employment drug test of a new hire to a position that is not test‐designated.”

Public comments on the amendments must be submitted to the commission by June 23 and may be emailed to [email protected].
