On March 31, Governor Cuomo signed into law the Marihuana Regulation and Taxation Act making New York the 16th state to legalize marijuana for recreational use. The legalization of recreational marijuana will have significant short and long-term effects on all facets of society in the state, including policies and procedures in the workplace. Join Fisher Phillips attorneys Amanda Blair and Justin Reiter as they walk through the potential impacts on employer hiring procedures, workplace drug testing and disciplinary policies, office social events, and the risks of legal exposure. Amanda and Justin will also discuss protections the law affords for employers and future developments employers should begin preparing for now.
