Employer Immunity from Civil Liability

Summary

The bill adds a new provision to Florida’s medical marijuana law that shields employers from civil liability if they fire, demote, or otherwise penalize an employee or job applicant because of marijuana possession or use, provided certain criteria are met. It applies when the marijuana is used on the workplace site, impairs job performance, or the person refuses or fails a drug test under defined testing scenarios. This aims to give employers clearer protection when addressing marijuana‑related issues.
