Recreational use of cannabis may now be legal for adults but that doesn’t mean you can get high at work. While the state law prohibits employers from termination or otherwise taking adverse action against employees for their recreational marijuana use, the law does carve out a number of protections for employers to ensure the safety of their workplaces.
