The police just now questioned me today he said he could ask but not insist and that it would clear my name. whatever. My employer says it was not the police who want it but my employer I was asked by my employer what I has said to the investigator and what he had said to me. Thats when I was told it was mandatory

Darkcobra makes a valid point:

This point is very true.  Also, the point that you can simply refuse the test either way no matter who initiates the request.  I have been advising based on the information you have written, which is the test is at the request of your employer.  Any scientific study of CVSA refutes the claims of its manufacturers.  I imagine (if I am incorrect please correct me) that the police involvement is at the request of your employer since they have the equipment to administer this farce.  That is no matter, make them do the investigative work necessary to determine who stole the money.

Do you know if your employer has filed a criminal complaint?  Or, has everything remained "in-house?"

what you need is a lawyer, not this forum.

i called one local office they did not know what EPPa was tol me to call federal office who in return told me to call local office a great system we have in these here United states.
Besides whatever happen to innocent UNTIL proven guilty. They have no idea what happen to the money that is why they have come up with this crappy joke of a test hoping they can catch someone being a little dishonest and pin it on them

The EPPA Law regarding your inquiry.  Key words are "reasonable suspicion, ongoing investigation and economic loss".   Also the employer must furnish you with a written statement that specificaly details the reason for their "Reasonable Suspicion" that you were in some manner involved in their economic loss.  Please consult the attorney in your area that handles labor cases.  They will inform you what you should do.
