Referrals to jobs with drug test requirements

When you are referring a partner to a drug tested job, you should:

• consider if the job is suitable for the partner, regardless of the drug test
• let the partner know that the employer may require them to pass a pre-employment drug test
• ask the partner if they would pass a pre-employment drug test and
• ensure the partner understands the potential consequences of failing a pre-employment drug test

There are certain situations where may not be appropriate to refer a partner to drug tested jobs. In these situations you should consider that, because of the drug test requirements, the job is not suitable.
