Summary of differences between federal and state regulations

Medical marijuana

A person who possesses a registry identification card may use medical marijuana to mitigate symptoms of a debilitating medical condition. An employer is not required to accommodate medical marijuana in the workplace. An employer may receive the name of a qualifying cardholder from the patient registry if the patient releases that information.

The state Supreme Court ruled in 2010 (Emerald Steel Fabricators v. Bureau of Labor and Industries) that an employer is not required to accommodate an employee's use of medical marijuana.

Recreational marijuana

A person over age 21 may possess and use a limited amount of marijuana. The law may not be construed to amend or affect in any way state or federal law pertaining to employment matters.
