Nevada has become the first state to ban employers from refusing to hire job applicants who fail a marijuana screening test.
The law, signed June 5 by Gov. Steve Sisolak, will take effect at the start of 2020.
“It is unlawful for any employer in this State to fail or refuse to hire a prospective employee because the prospective employee submitted to a screening test and the results of the screening test indicate the presence of marijuana,” the law states.
