Protecting Off-Duty Cannabis Use in California: What Employers Should Know

As of January 1, 2024, California employers cannot make employment decisions based on an employee’s legal, off-duty cannabis use. They also cannot request information about a job applicant’s prior cannabis use. Constangy partners Keya Denner, Ashley Orler, and Carolyn Sieve presented a webinar on the steps employers can take to comply with these new laws. SHRM and HRCI credits were offered for this webinar.

Topics covered include:

• AB 2188 and SB 700, California’s new laws protecting off-duty cannabis use
• Employer drug-testing policies and practices
• How to identify and address on-the-job cannabis impairment
