I just took a pre-employment drug screen and physical for a permanent position with a company that I've been working at for 8 months.They told me that my drug screen came back positive for thc,NO WAY!I requested a retest immediately and they refused to allow me to do so.I do take an anti-inflammatory for severe carpal tunnel,and have learned that it could have caused the false positive results.I explained this to the employer but to no avail,I need to know what my rights are so I can prove my innocence,as I have a disabled wife and 2 children to support and with new laws passed I can't even draw unemployment benefits.This is just detrimental to my family and my name,any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
I'm sorry you're having such difficulties.

I hope things improve for you and the entire nation, soon.

That said, there is no more you can do about the current matter.

You can look for another employment situation.

This potential employer has told you no.

No always means no.

There is nothing for you to prove.

The drug test results, and other information has aided them in making their decision.

Drug tests, these days, rarely result in "false positives".

If you haven't ingested "weed", it could have gotten in your system in other ways.

You might have been around others smoking "weed".

Maybe it was in some brownies you ate, unbeknownst to you?

But, it's in your system.
