    Editor’s Note

    With the evolution of state-specific regulation related to legalize marijuana for medicinal and, in some cases, recreational use, it’s no surprise that HR professionals are wondering how this might impact their drug testing and substance abuse policies. With approach toward the legality of marijuana rapidly progressing, it is high time for employers across the U.S. to revisit their workplace drug policies.

    Antitrust Guidance For HR Professionals: Does it raise prospect of criminal prosecutions?

    The Antitrust Guidance for Human Resource Professionals issued by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and Federal Trade Commission (FTC) on October 20, 2016 is not a change in law, but it is a fair warning to human resources professionals that they can be prosecuted criminally just like any other business executive if they conspire with competitors in violation of federal antitrust laws.

    Should You Fire An Employee Who’s Made A Mistake?

    It’s a position that no HR manager wants to be in. Your employee has done something wrong. Maybe it has cost the business in a serious way, or maybe it raises concerns about the employee’s judgment and ability to problem solve. Either way, it can be incredibly stressful. Do you use the incident as a teaching moment, both for the employee who made the error, and for the company at large? Or do you lay down the law and fire them?

    New Rules To Increase Tax Burden On Inherited Retirement Plans: How to protect your legacy?

    Gender, Restrooms, And Work: Moving beyond the boundaries of gender identity

    ​Call it a bathroom, lavatory, WC, loo, men’s room, women’s room, or restroom: It has never received more attention than it does today. For the past few years, restrooms have become an increasingly controversial issue, primarily due to the new awareness of transgender people and their needs. The issue first rose to prominence in regard to schools, where it is a part of the broader subject of accommodating transgender children.
