SPECIAL JANUARY 2017 MEETING OPEN TO NVMGMA MEMBERS
January 18, 2017
We have had many requests for a speaker on this topic. NAE has also, and there is enough information and material to warrant a workshop, which will take the place in lieu of our regular January 17 monthly meeting.
NVMGMA members will be allowed to register for this workshop at the heavily discounted NAE rate. In order to qualify for the discount, please identify as an NVMGMA member when you register.
Please see details below and we look forward to seeing you there!

EMPLOYERS' RIGHTS and RESPONSIBILITIES REGARDING MEDICAL & RECREATIONAL MARIJUANA
As more states legalize marijuana for medical and recreational use, such as Nevada, many employers are wondering what that will mean for their workplace policies and practices. The challenge for employers is that marijuana is still illegal under federal law, and state laws provide different levels of protection, if any, for employees who use it.
NAE has gathered a distinguished panel of professionals to provide general guidelines for employers and address issues including:
- Should employers revise their drug & alcohol policies?
- Should employers drug test employees who possess valid medical marijuana cards?
- Are employers required to accommodate employees with medical marijuana cards?
- How do employers determine if an employee is "impaired"?
Learn the answers to these questions and more at this relevant and timely event.

Time: 8:30 - 11:30am
Location: RSCVA Board Room at the Reno Town Mall (4001 S. Virginia St, Reno, NV)
