Minnesota’s New THC Law: What Should Employers Do Next?

Rapid changes in marijuana legalization and similar laws (like the new THC law in MN) have left employers in a precarious and confused position. Many employers maintain zero-tolerance policies on using drugs (including marijuana) in and outside the workplace and, naturally, don’t want their employees showing up to work intoxicated, in any form. How should employers deal with these laws across the country and this new law in Minnesota?

Join us on Tuesday, August 23rd at 2:00 PM CT as we discuss managing marijuana laws in the workplace, through policies, practices, and training.
