Phillip and Mike have a wide-ranging discussion of employer challenges given the multistate patchwork of marijuana laws, including recruitment and retention, the risk of discrimination or failure to accommodate, and determination of appropriate drug-testing policies. They also compare state laws in Massachusetts, Florida, and Arizona as an illustration of the differences among states and the resulting compliance challenges for multistate employers.
