Employers in Hawaii can drug test applicants and employees, certain rules must be followed. These must be advance notice in writing of a drug testing policy and each and every drug test. The donor for the workplace drug testing must receive a written statement of all of the specific drugs to be tested. The applicant or employee for the drug test must also receive a written statement that over-the-counter drugs or prescription medications can cause a positive drug test. Typically in Hawaii, the drugs to be tested for in workplace drug testing include: marijuana, cocaine, amphetamines, opiates, phencyclidine, barbiturates, methaqualone, benzodiazepines, propoxyphene, methadone, alcohol; and any other controlled substances in chapter 329, Hawaii revised statutes, and approved by the director.

Strict specimen collection procedures must be followed for workplace drug testing in Hawaii, these closely follow the dot and DHHS urine specimen collection guidelines. Laboratories conducting drug testing in Hawaii must be licensed and strictly regulated. All results typically go from the laboratory to the medical review officer (MRO). The role of the medical review officer (MRO) is to rule out that the positive drug test results were not caused by over-the-counter medication or legal prescription drugs. The medical review officer reviewing testing in Hawaii must be licensed as an MRO in Hawaii.
Employers in Hawaii should have a drug-free workplace policy that includes post-accident drug testing. An employee testing positive after an accident may be faced with denial of the worker’s compensation claim. Haw. Rev. Stat. §386-3 states: (b) no compensation shall be allowed for an injury incurred by an employee by the employee’s willful intention to injure oneself or another by actively engaging in any non-work related physical altercation other than in self-defense, or by the employee’s intoxication.
Hawaii also has a medical marijuana law. The medical marijuana law in Hawaii protects employers and does require an employer to allow the use of marijuana in the workplace and the use of medical marijuana at work is specifically prohibited. The law states that the authorization for the medical use of marijuana in this section shall not apply to the medical use of marijuana in the workplace of one’s employment.
Employers in Hawaii need to be careful to not implement a drug testing program without consultation from a professional expert on drug testing and state drug testing laws in Hawaii. Any drug-free workplace implemented in Hawaii should be implemented with strict attention to the state law on drug testing.
Point of collection testing (POCT) or on-site testing is allowed in Hawaii. The on-site drug testing devices must be approved by the FDA. The collector administering the point-of-collection drug test must be trained on the device being used and the collector must follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the device. For non-negative results, the specimen must be sent to a laboratory for confirmation testing and subsequent review by a medical review officer (MRO).
