Learning Session Description:
The use of medical marijuana is on the rise and the Federal Government has stated it will legalize recreational marijuana on October 17, 2018.  Is your workplace ready?  Are employees going to be entitled to use legal marijuana on the weekend and then work in a safety sensitive position Monday morning?  Is that safe?  This presentation will provide human resource professionals with the information they need to ensure a productive and safe workplace.
