Legal Question in Employment Law in California
In CA
Is medical marijuana a reason for non-employment if it does not effect job safety or work performance. Example Wal-Mart's drug policy applied to cashiers or greeters vs the obvious forklift drivers Wouldn't the American Disability Act effect the hiring standard as long as no dangerous equipment was evolved.
