It depends on what kind of painkillers. If it was an opiatoid, no difference. The rule is against anything that would cause mental impairment. The company has a legal obligation to protect the public from its mentally impaired drivers. To require them to hire a marijuana addict or someone on mind fogging opiates would be to buy the lawsuits that the public would undoubtably bring against them in the expected accidents.
