Well, California is one of the States which has passed very strict laws as to the ability of private employers to drug test employees. Therefore, it would seem to indicate that a private employer would end up responsible for damages for any ‘accident’ that occurred while the employee is under the influence. Or, he would be libel to a law suit if he tried to fire or remove an employee whom he thinks is under the influence. Kind of a catch 22!
Section 11304 (c) No person shall be punished, fined, discriminated against, or be denied any right or privilege for lawfully engaging in any conduct permitted by this Act or authorized pursuant to Section 11301 of this Act. Provided however, that the existing right of an employer to address consumption that actually impairs job performance by an employee shall not be affected.
Proposition 19 is a Pandora’s box. I pray to God it does not pass.
Soros if funding it. Maybe all the nanny state accusers on FR should consider that.
