Are Pre Employment Drug Test Results Confidential?
I don’t see any law making them confidential. The Illinois human rights statutes relating to drug test during employment specify that drug tests performed under that statute are not medical tests; but it isn’t clear that the statute applies to pre-employment testing. I suggest running your question past an Illinois employment lawyer, or waiting for another perspective here, as I could not find a definitive answer. I do have to say this much, though: If you’re going to be applying for jobs where the employer is that concerned about drug use, you need to consider leaving the room when your friends toke up.
