HR Hotline Live: Cannabis in the Workplace
Join us May 10—armed with your questions—for this one-hour, interactive HR Hotline Live.
Recreational and medical marijuana use is legal in Connecticut, with dispensaries rolling out recreational cannabis in January this year.
How does access to a formerly illegal product impact the workplace? Many employers worry about safety, productivity, and disciplinary issues. Others wonder if testing for cannabis use still makes sense in this new environment.
In this HR Hotline Live, CBIA HR Counsel Diane Mokriski joins Carmody Torrance Sandak & Hennessey attorneys Vincent Farisello and Nick Zaino to discuss best practices for handling employment issues related to cannabis use in the workplace.
They’ll address questions like:
- Can I rescind an employment offer if an applicant tests positive for cannabis?
- What accommodations must I make for employees who use medical marijuana?
- Can (and should) I drug test an employee who appears to be high?
- What should our handbook say?
- Is my company exempt from the new law?
