“High Hopes” – How Legalized Cannabis is Impacting the Workplace, Including Drug Testing and Policies

By popular demand from last year, we revisit the topic of legalized cannabis and its impact in the workplace. Indeed, new workplace laws are now in effect since July 1, 2022 that may impact employers’ ability to test for cannabis and take action. These new laws also address smoking and have had employers reconsidering their drug and alcohol policies as well.  When do you need to refresh your drug and alcohol policies, and what does ‘off-duty’ conduct really mean?

We invite you to join us on Thursday, November 3, 2022 as we take a deep dive into the role that legalized cannabis is now playing in our workplaces and what employers can do to stay current.  

TOPICS

• Cannabis businesses status
• New laws
• Drug and alcohol policies
• Smoking laws
• Off-duty conduct
