The cannabis legalisation referendum was a reminder of the need to manage the ongoing risk of impairment caused by drugs and alcohol.

These include a 2-part webinar and two podcasts with the Canadian Centre for Substance Use and Addiction, focusing on the Canadian experience of legalising cannabis. They also include a reflective guide on what organisations should consider when assessing the sufficiency of their approach to managing the risk of impairment at work.
