Workers comp question

Hi all,

I am an office employee in a small liberal arts college. This week I got hurt at work (tripped on the stairs carrying a coffee pot, broke it and cut my hand--I know it's kinda funny) and I had to go to the ER. Anyway, one of the doctors there said I may have to take a drug test. He asked me if I was safety/security (no) or if I was a driver (no), and then said "ok, nevermind."

So I'm thinking, did I dodge the bullet? Am I in the clear? I am a regular smoker; I smoke every day (and have for about 2-3 months now) so it would definitely take me a month to detox. Do you think they may still ask me to take a test?

Yes, your employer may have you take a drug test in order to keep his/her Workmans Comp insurance premiums from going thru the roof.

Be prepared.

I am so screwed. I don't know how I can hold them off for a month.
