This question is about Amgen.
Yes, Amgen drug tests. Amgen has a strict drug policy in place that includes a pre-employment drug test, as well as the right to randomly drug test any employee as Amgen sees fit.
Moreover, Amgen has the right to terminate any employee who is intoxicated while on Amgen premises, in company vehicles, or performing work for Amgen if you are impaired by drugs or alcohol.
Employment is contingent upon confirmation by Amgen of the information listed on their employment application and the receipt by Amgen of satisfactory results from a background verification and pre-employment drug test.
However, our research has mixed reports from current and former employees on whether they were asked to take a pre-employment drug test. This may reflect a recent relaxing of their drug policy for some positions. Overall, around 30% of respondents report being asked to take a pre-employment drug test.
When a pre-employment drug test is required, anticipate a urine screening done onsite. The drug test looks for the following drugs:
Amphetamines
Cannabis
Cocaine
Opiates
Phencyclidine
Barbiturates
Amgen is a smoke-free workplace. The use of tobacco or vaping products is strictly prohibited while at work. Employees wishing to break the habit have access to company-paid smoking cessation programs.
