A review of the employment law implications of California s legalization of marijuana (Proposition 19).
Why Should You Attend:On November 2nd, California voters approved Proposition 19, legalizing the use and possession of small amounts of marijuana. Unlike the Compassionate Use Act of 1996 (Proposition 215), which legalized only the medical use of marijuana, Proposition 19 would legalize recreational use. Moreover, unlike the 1996 law, Proposition 19 includes specific protections for pothead employees. This webinar covers what should California employers know about the new law.
