Part 3 - Examine Your Thinking

You have completed your research so now you have a good idea of the facts that support or oppose this action, where the law is on this, and what your potential future employers are doing on this issue. Now it is time to revisit your initial statement.

2. Restate your position bringing in the facts of the issue. It is okay to state your opinions.

Would you agree with me that Ohio law can no longer support the ban on hiring smokers because smoking is a legal activity and whatever a person does in the privacy of their home should not impact whether or not they get hired or keep their job?

There is nothing wrong with making that statement. However, based on that mindset, help me answer the following:

1. Legal Substances

Should all legal substances be permitted to exist in your body while you are "on the clock" at your place of work? (Think things like alcohol, prescribed pain killers, etc)

How long a person should be substance free prior to reporting to work.

3. Legalized Medical Marijuana

Does the fact it is "medical" make a difference in your answer.

State your response now based on medical marijuana.
