Employee Drug and Alcohol Issues (Webinar Recap)

On February 28, 2024, I presented a complimentary webinar entitled “Employee Drug and Alcohol Issues”. For those who couldn’t attend the live webinar, I’m happy to make it available for you to watch at your convenience.

In the webinar, I discuss:

  • Medical and Recreational Marijuana Use
  • Drug and Alcohol Testing
  • Policies and Procedures
  • Discipline

and much more!

Employers hate to be faced with issues related to employee drug and alcohol use. Unfortunately, there’s no avoiding the possibility that you will have to deal with these issues as part of your human resources duties.

This webinar addresses the latest updates related to the legalization of marijuana in New York as well as general requirements and best practices related to employee drug use. If you currently rely on drug testing or are considering using it with your employees, make sure you understand how the laws interact to regulate that process (or not!). Plus, we conclude with a discussion of related discipline issues (and alternatives).
