Asked

They will if 2 managers other than you manager think you are under the influence. They will then take you to get adrug and alcohol test. If you fail the drug test you are immediately fired. If you fail an alcohol test they make you get a substance abuse evaluation and you will be suspended w/o pay until you complete the recommendation of the substance abuse counselor. After completing that you are subject to randoms whenever they want for the next year.

Report question
I applied, had the interview, and was told "welcome to Pella". I was so excited to become part of a great company. I was told that "you won't have a problem with the test. I passed the drug test and went for the physical. Imagine my surprise when I was told I had to lift 65 pounds. I am a dedicated and motivated worker, but no way I could lift that much. Is this a normal requirement?

Asked

Pella does an assessment by a 3rd party who determines what jobs can be done safely and ergonomically. The majority of jobs at Pella do not require this level of physicality and only new hires who are cleared for heavier lifting are allowed to do so.
