New York Department of Labor Issues Recreational Cannabis Guidance
Spring 2021 brought about the legalization of recreational cannabis for individuals 21 and older in the state of New York. The Marihuana Regulation and Taxation Act (the Act) was immediately effective and impacted workplace drug and alcohol testing practices. New York residents ages 21 and older can use, possess, and cultivate cannabis but are not permitted to do so in the workplace. Additionally, employers are broadly prohibited from testing for cannabis unless certain requirements are met and drug tests cannot be the basis for the determination that an individual is impaired.
