&quot;The percentage of U.S. workers who tested positive for using drugs hit a 10-year high in 2015, according to an analysis conducted by the Madison, N.J.-based diagnostic information provider Quest Diagnostics.&quot;&nbsp; 
 
<a href="http://arcpointlabsfranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=fairfax-county-times-arcpoint-labs-reports-higher-drug-use-in-fairfax-county-6868" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">ARCpoint Labs</a>, a national drug, alcohol, DNA and steroid testing provider, contributed drug test results to Quest Diagnostics&rsquo; study. Franchisee, Jon Helm says the findings echo what he has observed at work over the past two years. 
 
&ldquo;I have seen recently, both in terms of companies and the community, drug use on the rise really over the last couple of years,&rdquo; Helm said. &ldquo;We&rsquo;ve been doing this since March 2010, but it seems to me that we&rsquo;re getting more positive testing than I&rsquo;ve seen before.&rdquo; 
 
It was reported, Fairfax County students reported more LSD, cocaine, methamphetamine and heroin use within the past month than their national peers. 
 
&ldquo;I think parents hesitate to test their children, because they don&rsquo;t want to accuse them or anything like that,&rdquo; Helm said. &ldquo;But when you read about the deaths, you wonder what happened before that&hellip;It just seems like, overall, in society, we need to be a little more cognizant and spend more time observing the situation.&rdquo;
