The Conundrum of Cannabis
Experts offer strategies to help navigate the complex landscape of marijuana legalization and workforce safety.
By Marta Chmielowicz
There is more public support for marijuana law reform than ever before, with Pew Research Center reporting that 62 percent of Americans are in favor of marijuana legalization. And the legislative landscape is constantly changing—33 states have legalized medical marijuana and 10 states, along with Washington D.C., have legalized its recreational use.

This contradictory legislation is creating a conundrum for organizations that have embraced strict drug-free workplace policies.
CEO’s Letter: Protecting Our Own
By Elliot H. Clark
On February 15, 2019, a terminated employee at the Henry Pratt Company in Aurora, Illinois, shot and killed the company’s HR manager, Clayton Parks, and an HR intern, Trevor Wehner, who had begun his internship that morning.

Time for the Basics
HR leaders need to remember there’s a reason why their job titles include the word “human.”
By Elissa Barrett
HR professionals are often at the forefront of listening and learning from peers, leaders, and employees. They are the gatekeepers of the candidate experience and the ones that employees approach to talk, vent, share, laugh, and let’s face it: cry. And through those conversations, the gathering of data without conscious awareness occurs.
