Can an employee test positive for marijuana from second hand smoke?

Answer

Cut-off levels have been established to rule out passive or second hand smoke inhalation. Clinical studies have been conducted to establish the cut-offs, and the studies concluded that it is extremely unlikely for an individual to test positive due to passive or second hand smoke inhalation.
