FEDERAL GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES AND MEDICAL MARIJUANA USE
Many California employers to require their employees to take random drug tests in an effort to promote a drug-free workplace. In California, and a few others states, the use of medical marijuana has been legalized, which makes one think that if they have a medical marijuana license and they test positively for pot, they are OK. This may or may not actually be the case.
Federal law states that all marijuana use, including medical, is against this law. This conflicts with the California laws. So, if you live and work in CA, but are employed by the federal government, you might have to follow a different set of rules. If you are a registered medical marijuana user and your employer has used it as a reason to fire you, you might be able to bring a claim against him. Talk to an experienced employment attorney today.
