I think this is exactly the information you need:

Saliva / oral fluid-based drug tests can generally detect use during the previous few hours to 1-2 days. THC may only be detectable for less than 12 hours in most cases. On site drug tests are allowed per the Department of Labor.[12]

Detection in saliva tests begins almost immediately upon use of the following substances, and lasts for approximately the following times:

Alcohol: 6–12 h[13]
Marijuana and hashish (THC): 12–24 h[13]
Cocaine (including crack): 1 day[13]
Opiates: Up to 2–3 days
Methamphetamine (“Tweak,” “crank,” “ice”) and ecstasy (MDMA,) : Up to 5 to 13 days.
Benzodiazepines: From time of ingestion up to 2 to 3 days
Amphetamines 3 days[13]
Phencyclidine (PCP) 3 days[14]

NOTE: Saliva tests are poorly sensitive to THC and detection times can vary considerably based on the cutoffs used. In some cases drug use may only be detectable for a few hours.
