Profile For John D.

Just to clarify I popped for a random hair follicle test. I went to the lab to get it done, they gave me one hour to report. I went and took the hair follicle test then immediately after I was told to report to the operating center where they inttoregated me and told me someone called in anonymously and said I had been using illicit substances. Then they made me take a urine test and put me out of service.

Thanks for the advice everyone much appreciated.

Did you ask if they’d pay you? Did you ask what the basis for their suspicion was?

We’re not lawyers and don’t even know where you are, so we probably can’t answer your question.

You could ask a lawyer and that shouldn’t cost you any money.

Good luck.

They told me they got an ‘anonymous’ phone call. And no I haven’t ask them yet because I don’t know if I have any grounds to stand on. That’s why I’m asking for advice.

Meant I was put out of work. Sorry typo

I work for a large company that put me ‘out of service for suspicion of drug use’ I was out of work for a week until my drug test cleared. I had popped for a random which was a hair follicle test then I was told to report to the operating center where they interrogated me. They then proceeded to give me a urine test and put me out of service for a week until the results came back. My question is: is there anything compensation related that I can do? I wasn’t put out of work for the whole week all because of a ‘suspicion’. Btw I passed both test.
