The Marijuana & the Workplace Online Course has Launched

Fri, 01/26/2018

The planned legalization of cannabis for recreational use, in 2018, impacts all workplaces – even those with zero-tolerance policies. Are you prepared?

With Safety Culture: Marijuana & the Workplace, you get a comprehensive look at the top issues facing your business, including:

  • Impairment
  • Duty to Accommodate
  • Employer Obligations
  • Employee Rights & Responsibilities
  • Physical Safety and Mental Health
  • Workplace Best Practices
  • Reasonable Suspicion
  • The Future Landscape

This cost-effective online course sets a baseline about what we currently know about the issue, and maybe even more importantly, what is still being studied.

The outcomes / benefits of this course will allow organizations to:

  • Competently assess and revise their Alcohol / Drug Policies (including Zero-Tolerance).
  • Understand their legal obligations and how they’ve changed with the legalization of off-duty marijuana use.
  • Gain an awareness of the risks and liabilities (thus ensuring their due diligence).
  • Educate their workforce on the information around the change and the requirements of the policy.Meet your OHS Act obligation for workers’ “Right to Know” about hazards.

All the above outcomes are recorded as documented evidence of competence on our Learning Management System (LMS) for every user, including a Certificate.

We are equipping employers and their workforce with the information necessary to prevent costly misunderstandings resulting in legal actions, or even worse, workplace incidents and injuries.

Safety Culture is about doing what’s right to ensure everyone works safe, and stays safe. Everyone wants to go to work, do their job well and get home safe.
