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.
