Default Re: Canadian Employers. Typical policies?

I think most US employers are more worried about the safety issue of having someone stoned/coked up on the job. The funny thing is, if you really are a hardcore drug user, all you have to do is get past the pre-hire screening. After that, you never get checked again. The military does constant drug screens, but this isn't applicable to the civilian world.

The only time some US companies will re-screen you is if you have an accident on the job (crash a forklift, etc.).

Edited to reflect appreciation:
Many thanks to my northern neighbors for the responses.
