Marijuana Legalization and Employee Rights

Marijuana Legalization and Employee Rights, with Ottawa employment lawyer Alex Lucifero on CTV.

It will be legal for Canadians to use marijuana starting Oct 17th 2018. Is the country ready for it?

Are employees allowed to use marijuana at work? Can a company ban an employee from using marijuana outside of work? Can an employee use medical marijuana at work?

Alex Lucifero, Managing Partner at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP and an Ottawa employment lawyer, joined CTV Morning Live Ottawa to explain what employees need to do to prepare for the potential impact on workplaces.
