Massachusetts H1941 aims to prevent employers from barring or discharging employees due to cannabis metabolite presence in blood or urine tests.
Massachusetts H1941 seeks to amend existing law by prohibiting employers from refusing to hire, discharging, or discriminating against employees based on the presence of tetrahydrocannabinol or marijuana metabolites in blood, urine, or other body samples. It allows employers to take such actions only if there is probable cause to believe the employee is impaired at work and poses a risk to others. The bill also provides a defense for employees unable to maintain necessary licenses or qualifications due to cannabis presence.
