That makes no sense unless people are doing the drugs at work. Why would an insurance company not underwrite a company based on what their employees do in their free time?
My brother in law is the owner of a electrician company, we live in Washington state where cannabis is legal. His insurance company will drop him if they don’t have a strong anti drug policy. It’s pretty lame.
How would you prove that the drugs were only taken during off hours? Drug use is stigmatized to the point that anyone who uses illicit substances must be an addict. It is an excuse for an insurance company not to pay a claim and they simply won’t insure drug users. You may not like it but that’s simply the way it works
You couldn’t. And I don’t even care if they’re an addict. If they smoke meth daily or drink twelve beers when they get home, so what? As long as they can do their job, fine. I worked with a major alcoholic. He was an asshole, but he got his job done and did it well. So apart from it being unpleasant to work with him, who cares? And if it was cocaine or meth or whatever instead, again, who cares?
