In many places there are safety issues to deal with. You have to be proactive to avoid an incident.
Here's a non-drug related one. In many places road construction companies will disallow workers from wearing headphones. This is because of the heavy machinery and you need to hear the beeps of a machine backing up. Drivers of those do not have good sight around the machinery and large trailers. Headphones on can mean not hearing a warning sound and being struck and possibly killed.
Are wearing headphones a problem? Do you want to fire someone until an accident happens?
Part of the proactive nature to this is insurance companies. If there aren't strict safety policies that are enforced than insurance companies won't cover companies. When accidents occur they have to pay out and want to avoid that.
Drug use has been proven to cause certain issues depending on the drug that can have safety impacts at work sights. This can costs lives and money.
This is why it becomes a big deal in certain fields.
