Has anyone (or heard of someone) ever failed a drug test for a potential job and had the employer call the police and tell them they know someone who smokes weed? Is it legal? What do you say if asked for explanation to not sound like an ass?

Law can't do anything to you! possesion is 9/10 of the law. Not against the law to smoke,but it is to possess. Don't worry! So... You smoke weed. That boss is a snitch!

I think it is against the law to smoke. I am asking more if it violates my right to privacy and/or self incrimination.

Also, this is a hypothetical situation. What if that person were on parole or probation? What is the legality?

You or they would go to jail for violation. Very few situation would be an internal possesion charge. I ain't no lawyer. Hell! I don't even know that much about law. Those are just street smart thoughts,then.

:confused:If your probation officer took/ordered the drug test as part of parole? It is part of the process. If taken for pre-employment: I am 'guessing' it could not be used, as it may be out of the scope of legit 'evidence' and can be contested. Who knows?
Why would anyone call the police on a pre-employment screen? Doesn't seem feasible! pr

It falls under the HIPAA laws. They can not divulge any medical information to anyone else without your written consent. So be sure to read any documants the company has you sign. If anything mentions releasing medical information to 3rd parties refuse.
