Nevada

(Last Updated October 2023)

Nevada does not have a general drug testing statute; however, there is a mandatory law that restricts pre-employment testing for cannabis and testing that takes place within the first 30 days of employment. Additionally, there is a laboratory licensing law that defines and regulates point-of-care testing. As well, there are workers’ and unemployment compensation laws in Nevada that contain their own drug testing requirements. Employers are not required to comply unless they wish to deny workers’ or unemployment compensation claims.
