Download this new editable, reproducible tip sheet for employees on CBD Oil.
Employees should be educated about the risk of purchasing and using CBD oil because it can affect their health and potentially impact their
job performance.
While CBD oil is generally considered safe and legal, there are some risks associated with its use, particularly if it contains THC or other contaminants.
A few people have therefore asked us to produce a tip sheet on this topic.
If employees use CBD oil that contains THC, they may experience psychoactive effects such as feeling high or impaired, which can negatively impact their ability to work.
Additionally, some CBD
products may contain contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides, or solvents, which can be harmful to health if consumed.
Furthermore, employees who are subject to drug testing should be aware that some CBD products may cause a positive drug test for marijuana, even if the product is labeled as THC-free.
This can lead to disciplinary action or even termination of employment. But this can cause havoc for employers, especially HR.
And it create horrible
legal challenges, the worst part the money you organization will shell out even if you win.
It is important for employers to educate their employees about the potential risks of CBD oil use and amend drug policies regarding its use in the workplace. Right?
