Weed in the Workplace

The increasing number of states legalizing marijuana and its continued illegal treatment by the federal government, even in a reduced enforcement environment, poses a workplace issue for your business. While working under the influence need not be tolerated, policies and procedures for applicants and employees, drug testing, disciplinary actions and other workplace rules need to take into account this contradictory situation. Prior planning and preparation is preferable to  surprises and playing catch-up when a problems arises.
