Meeting Description

Businesses are struggling to figure out how to respond to marijuana … and hemp … and Delta-8 THC … and CBD. And it’s no wonder, with all the changes happening (quickly) with both the drug and how it’s regulated. It’s difficult for employers to keep up with what they can or should do, and the issue is compounded with our country’s labor shortage.

Employees are wondering what all these new laws and products mean to them and their jobs, while employers are left wondering about whether — or how — to adjust company policies and operations in an ever-changing environment.

Discover some of the challenges employers need to overcome when deciding how to respond to the use of these substances and about new resources available to help local businesses address this issue.
