Welcome to AccelPro Employment Law, where we offer interviews and products to accelerate your professional development. Today we’re featuring a conversation about cannabis and the workplace. Our guest is Narcisa Przulj. She is a partner at Sandberg Phoenix who counsels employers as they wrestle with these changing laws.
Cannabis law is an emerging field in employment law. Marijuana is now legal for recreational use in more than 20 states, and that number will continue to grow.
Employers face the complicated proposition that a substance that was illegal throughout our country’s history is now legal. What does that mean for the workplace? Should employers in states where recreational use is legal test for it? What does the law say about jobs with safety concerns?
Przulj explains the perils of testing, the mitigating factors of safety and government contracts, and the importance of having consistent policies.
