  • What happens if I get caught cheating?
    If you are caught cheating, your specimen is recorded as a failed test and reported to your potential employer. If you are testing for the Department of Transportation, you may face a suspension period and possible employment termination. If the courts have ordered a submission, it’s possible that you will be declared in breach of a court order or parole conditions, and you will very likely go to jail. On top of breaking a parole condition, you could also face further charges for having submitted a fake specimen.

Your employer may also request a blood, hair, or breathalyzer test. .

  • I often smoke marijuana or take edibles; will I pass my test?
    On January 1, 2020, Nevada became the first state to prohibit discrimination against prospective employees for testing positive for marijuana on a pre-employment drug screening. As a result, most employers do not even test for THC and will still extend a job offer based upon a positive test. However, there are exceptions and jobs involving safety (construction) or driving (Department of Transportation) may still use a positive marijuana test as a reason not to offer employment.
