- Authors

- Abstract
Marijuana is decriminalized in states, but still violates Federal laws. Employers face a scenario where employee drug testing is alienating Millennials. While few Millennials use marijuana, they favor the right to use and are strongly against workplace testing for use. Further, Millennials have demonstrated they will, in greater numbers than preceding generations, leave employers they do not feel politically or socially aligned with. This paper discusses these issues, offers suggestions on how employers can retain testing practices while addressing Millennial concerns, and create an environment where Millennials feel more positively aligned with their employers despite workplace testing.
