Sue, I think it will depend on the specific policies of the employer. If they can show that all their medications have been prescribed to them then it shouldn't be an issue. Hope this helps!
Do you know if a New York City sanitation worker on probation could be fired?
It depends on the specific employment regulations and I am not familiar with them all, but basically if you are on any medication that may mean the job puts you or anyone else I'm danger, then they can.
Some examples that I know can prohibit it are truck drivers and airline pilots. Thus, I suggest you look into the regulations pertaining to the industry you are trying to get a job in.

Are there any other questions or comments?
