1. Compliance with Oregon Law:
   VROPCO complies with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, including the Oregon Workplace Drug and Alcohol Testing laws (ORS 659A.300-659A.330). We ensure all drug screening is conducted in a fair, respectful, and confidential manner.

2. Marijuana Use:
   While recreational and medical marijuana use is legal in Oregon, marijuana remains a Schedule I controlled substance under federal law. For safety-sensitive positions or those governed by federal regulations, a positive test for THC may disqualify an applicant, regardless of state legality.

   If you are taking any prescribed medications or have a medical condition that may affect your drug screening, please notify the Medical Review Officer (MRO) during the review process. Reasonable accommodations will be considered in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Oregon disability laws.

   Drug screening will not be conducted without your written consent. All results are kept strictly confidential and will only be shared with authorized personnel involved in the hiring process.

By continuing with the hiring process, you acknowledge and understand that a conditional offer of employment may be contingent upon the successful completion of a drug screen, and that refusal to test may result in withdrawal of the employment offer.
