I think arbitration goes both ways. If both parties have agreed to
arbitration, I think they both are obliged to comply with the ruling.

I’m not sure that’s a correct reading of the article. This was a state
job, I’m guessing with a union contract that included arbitration?
The arbitrator said he should not be fired but rather be suspended
without pay for 6 months and be subject to random drug testing for a
year. The lower court overturned the arbitrator’s decision saying it
was contrary to state policy against marijuana use. The supreme court
overruled the lower court and let the arbitrator’s ruling stand.
“All seven justices agreed that the lower-court judge was wrong to
overturn the arbitrator’s ruling, saying that although state policy on
drug use in the workplace allows for firing workers it does not
require it.”
It sounds like they were in the clear firing the worker if it weren’t
for his ability to take it to arbitration.

The supreme court has now ruled that you cant actually fire an
employee for doing drugs in your company vehicles and getting
arrested for the crime
