No matter how many states legalize marijuana it will not change the fact that marijuana users, just like those who misuse alcohol, are still more likely to be involved in a workplace accident, file a workers' compensation claim, and utilize their health care benefits. Employees under the influence of marijuana are still dangerous and marijuana is still illegal... according to federal law. Employers still have the right to test for marijuana and hold employees accountable when they test positive. But so much depends on how a company conducts drug testing and what its drug testing policy says. Join well-known drug testing expert Bill Current as he explains how to ensure your workplace is not just drug-free, but marijuana free also. This timely presentation will bring you up to date on the various state marijuana laws and discuss how lab-based oral fluid testing may be the most effective way to test for marijuana in a state that has legalized the drug.
