Get Highly Informed: Upcoming First Advantage Webinar to Explore Employer Implications of New Marijuana Legislation

As recreational marijuana legislation continues to emerge across the United States, employers need to understand how the timing and implications of these laws impact their organizations. For instance, as SHRM explained, “Under a different California law that will take effect on April 1, 2024, employers cannot fire, discipline, or demote a worker for using cannabis off the job and away from the workplace. However, employers can require employees to not possess, use or be impaired by marijuana at the worksite during work hours.”

To help employers navigate this evolving landscape, First Advantage will present a webinar on Tuesday, January 30, 2024, at 1:00 p.m. ET, exploring the latest in marijuana screening. During this session, Abe Hammell, Chief Medical Review Officer; Barb Hester, Senior Global Product Director; Josephine Kenney, Chief Global Compliance Officer; and Ryan Nardontonia, Senior Counsel, Americas, for First Advantage, will consider what employers need to know now.
