Legal access to marijuana: The workplace impact

Presented at the 2018 Mining Health and Safety Conference by Randy Herman, CannAMM Occupational Testing Services.  

The topic of marijuana access and its use is sensitive, complex, and highly polarized with issues and implications for health and safety. Employers have questions about how to respond to this new landscape. What changes are necessary to current policies and procedures? What if employees’ recreational use off-duty affects workplace performance? This session focuses on helping employers to understand the changes, the implications for health and safety, and to provide guidance on how to manage these challenges in safety-sensitive industries.
