Make sure you know the right way to test for drugs and alcohol in the workplace and have the proper policies in place.
Employers committed to maintaining a drug- and alcohol-free workplace are increasingly faced with a myriad of state and federal laws on this topic, many of which are in conflict. Compliance has become more complicated by the growing trend of legalizing marijuana and cannabidiol (CBD) products. How can an employer comply with those laws without their policies going up in smoke? Gain an understanding of legally compliant and defensible drug and alcohol testing policies and procedures and prepare for the unexpected.
Learning Objectives
- You will be able to describe the key components of defensible drug and alcohol testing policies and procedures.
- You will be able to identify reasonable suspicion of impairment.
- You will be able to discuss the impact of the legalization of cannabis on the workplace.
- You will be able to explain how to address a variety of scenarios that arise from a positive test result.
