Dirty drug test (read pot) will make you uninsurable for workers comp purposes. In Louisiana as well as other states if you are injured on the job and you teat positive for weed or metabolite of weed, NO BENEFITS WHATSOEVER. Let's say for example you go to Colorado and smoke a fat boy. Two weeks later you get in a work accident and , say loose your arm. The routine drug test turns up trace weed metabolite in your urine from the fat boy in Colorado. NO COMP indemnity payments, no medical payments, no nothing!!! Doesn't matter that the metabolite had nothing to do with the accident, it was there ergo you are screwed.
Same thing with alcohol-any trace in a post accident test and you are out. Tough luck that weed stays in your system a lot longer than alcohol.......
