Reasonable Suspicion Training for Supervisors
When an employee appears impaired at work, supervisors need to know what to observe, what to document, and what steps to take next.
AIM HR Solutions’ Reasonable Suspicion: The Impact of Marijuana, Drugs, and Alcohol at Work training helps Massachusetts employers prepare supervisors and HR professionals to respond consistently, appropriately, and in accordance with workplace policies.
Participants will learn how legalized marijuana affects the workplace, how to distinguish observable behavior from assumptions, and how to address potential drug or alcohol impairment while protecting employees and the organization.
