Can a employer know if failed a pre employment drug test? |
im trying to get a job . I don't think so. Not unless the facility/clinic that will give the drug test is the same one. Peace and blessings! yes, if the company you are applying for has a zero tolerance policy and follow the department of transportation guidelines on their drug policy they will check to see if you failed a drug test. Companies do this by contacting previous employers to see if you have done any drug testing done in the past 3 or 4 years, under the transportation guidelines past employers are required to release this information! The purpose of the drug test is to determine whether an applicant is worthy of employment. When you apply for a job, you are giving away certain of your privacy rights and one is the result of the drug test. Otherwise it would make no sense to do drug testing if the employer would not know the result. Yeah...it's not in the context of healthcare, they're paying for it, and you're being considered for employment. If you do test positive, I don't think they're told what kind of substances were detected. But there are not a lot of legal substances that you could ingest that would be detected in a drug test. |
