SPEAKER SERIES TOPIC:
Marijuana in Missouri – Are Employers Ready for Change?
ABOUT THE PRESENTATION:::
On November 8, 2022, Missouri voters approved Amendment 3, amending Section 1 of Article XIV of the Missouri Constitution. Amendment 3 legalizes personal use of marijuana (also known as cannabis) by adults 21 and older, allows individuals to petition for release from prison, expunge certain arrests and conviction records of non-violent marijuana offenses, and enacts a 6 percent tax on retail price of recreational marijuana.
Amendment 3 has notable legal changes for Missouri employers. This session will answer the top questions about how the legalization of recreational marijuana and the law changes regarding medicinal marijuana may impact your business including - drug testing, background checks, managing your workforce, and more!
