Chamber, Partnership Carson City offer workplace drug policy marijuana workshops
Will the Marijuana initiative pass? Your guess is as good as ours, but in case it does, all employers need to have a drug policy in place to deal with drugs in the workplace – updated to include marijuana.
The Carson City Chamber of Commerce and Partnership Carson City are offering a free marijuana drug policy hands-on workshop on Tuesday, Oct. 18, from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at the Carson Chamber Training Room, 1900 S. Carson Street. There's also a session from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Medical marijuana is already legal and after Nov. 8, it might be legal to grow pot in your backyard and smoke it within the privacy of your own home. If the initiative passes, Carson City may have as many as four new dispensaries. There's one in the south, one in the east and Carson City could have one in the north and the west – fully covering our small city.
As state laws evolve around legal marijuana, the workplace drug policy is the single most important tool an employer has for guidance on appropriate responses to employee drug use. Are your policies up-to-date? What can you do and what should you avoid? Bring your policy to this hands-on workshop taught by a national expert and leave with an updated policy that suits your needs, gives you the tools you need to be compliant with Nevada state law. Keep your workplace safe and drug-free, avoid liability situations and gain peace of mine in your day-to-day operations.
Spend three hours with Jo McGuire and go back to the office knowing your personnel policies will be airtight.
RSVP as to which session you wish to attend prior to Oct. 14. Call (775) 882-1565.
