It’s 4/20 Somewhere! New Protections on Cannabis Use in California & What Employers Need to Know

Event

4.20.23
2:00 PM — 3:00 PM PST

A new employment discrimination protection is on the way for California employees’ off-the-job cannabis use. AB 2188 greatly expands cannabis users’ rights to fight discrimination in the workplace and prevents employers from firing workers or not hiring applicants just because of a positive cannabis test. While the new law does not go into effect until January 1, 2024, California employers will want to use the remainder of 2023 to make sure they are in compliance. Fisher Phillips attorney, Jim Fessenden and Founder of Talent Distinctions, Michelle Winkley, will:

  • Provide an overview of AB 2188 and significant developments
  • Cover how cannabis use will soon be protected under a Worker Rights’ Law
  • Share tips on how your company can stay in compliance
  • Answer your questions

This webinar will be submitted for 1 hour of HRCI and SHRM credit.
