Professional Development
Marijuana legalization is changing quickly and the ramifications in the workplace are changing along with it. As part of the tri-state area, Pennsylvania employers need to be keenly aware of the laws in Pennsylvania and in surrounding states as well. As important as understanding the current laws is strategically planning for the future of pre-employment and post-hire testing.
Join us for a deeper dive into the topic of marijuana legalization and the workplace during our in-person event which will provide a playbook to support you in updating your organization’s policies and procedures as well as help you in navigating the challenges regarding workplace testing and enforcement.
Discussion topics include:
1. Overview of the landscape and laws
2. The challenge of testing for marijuana versus other drugs
3. Policies and procedures for today
4. Rethinking workplace drug testing
5. Legalization, lobbying and moving forward
