Does Jimmy John's drug test?

Question

Matthew Zane · Accepted Answer

No, Jimmy Johns does not drug test potential hires and current employees in most cases; however, those seeking to gain managerial positions at Jimmy Johns must submit to a drug screening in order to be considered eligible for employment.

However, the sandwich company does reserve the right to request a drug screen of current employees in any of the following scenarios:

When employees are suspected of being intoxicated at work
When employees are involved in a workplace accident
When employees experience a work-related injury

In any of these instances, a failed drug test can result in disciplinary action, including termination, and possible criminal prosecution, if the employee has endangered the lives of their co-workers. It is unclear what type of drug test the company uses in these situations as it is a process that is completed by a third-party drug testing lab.
