Workplace Deaths Drop in States With Medical Cannabis

“Although there is not a direct identification of those who use marijuana for medical purposes in the data, overall sickness absence is reduced for those in age and gender groups most likely to be cardholders,” Ulman wrote.

Ulmon was hesitant to claim clear causality, recognizing that research regarding cannabis laws’ effects on productivity and the labor market are limited. “Given the lack of prior studies, more research is warranted in this area.”

Yes, it goes back to HandsomeRob's post where he said "Correlation does not equal causation".

Which I agreed with.

But here's the thing.. the numbers ARE STILL DOWN. If marijuana use during people's off time turned them into lazy zombies like people here are trying to imply. (One poster even said a 20% higher rate at calling out for pot smokers) Then the absentee statistics would reflect the increase in call outs since the legalization of marijuana use in these states...and they're not.
