Can my boss still fire me for using medical marijuana? - Nevada

Nevada has some limited protections now for medical marijuana patients who are seeking a job. A.B. 132 prohibits employers from refusing to hire a person just because their pre-employment drug screen is positive for medical marijuana. Certain types of employers are exempt though. Employers subject to federal drug-free workplace laws, employers for safety oriented jobs and those who have collective bargaining agreements that allow or require testing are examples of exempt employers. If you're in doubt, you should ask about your prospective employer's testing policies.
