Weed use linked to lower rates of workplace injury.

Here's an interesting scientific study that produced some counter-intuitive results.

(It's a pdf..)

Basically, the Swiss study showed that alcohol use while on the job led to greater workplace injury.

Here's the kicker: Marijuana use on the job was linked to lower rates of workplace injury even lower than that of workers not under the influence!

My suspicion is that the stoners are avoiding work while on the job so they have overall lower risks on the job.

Guess we'll need another study to find out.
