I know that an employer cannot ask what medications an employee is taking. But, can a person who has Chronic Pain and is on narcotic pain medication, prescribed and monitored monthly by a physician, be fired for taking this medication?
This person is unable to function without medication. He has been taking the medication for 8 months and has no deficiencies, accidents, and recently had a great evaluation.
Random drug testing is why we are concerned. His time is bound to come up really soon.
