Advantus Corp is committed to protecting the safety, health, and well-being of every employee in our workplace.
Florida law allows for the controlled use of medical marijuana. Although employees who legally obtain a medical marijuana registration card from the Florida Department of Health are allowed to possess and consume certain quantities of marijuana, doing so is not permitted on Company property or at Company sponsored events (either on or off Company property).
We recognize the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes and respect the rights of employees to engage in responsible and legal marijuana use. The Company may in its discretion seek to accommodate legally recognized Florida medical marijuana users when possible.
In the event an employee arrives to work in an impaired state under the influence of medical marijuana, his or her work suffers because of its use, or there is a safety risk for any employee, the Company reserves the right to take disciplinary action against the employee, up to and including termination of employment.
