Some of the mistakes that I see cannabis
and hemp employers making when it comes
to workplace issues have to do with
non-compliance with wage and hour laws.
Also, lack of workplace safety measures,
ignoring OSHA standards, which
absolutely apply to cannabis and hemp
businesses. Also, inadequate employee
policies and handbooks can be a clear
problem for cannabis and hemp operators
if they’re not kept up to date with
current regulations impacting the
industries.

San Francisco, CA cannabis and hemp lawyer Shay Aaron Gilmore talks about some common mistakes he sees cannabis businesses make in employment matters. He shares his observation that some common mistakes made by cannabis and hemp employers relate to non-compliance with wage and hour laws. Other frequent issues include insufficient workplace safety measures and failure to adhere to OSHA standards, which are fully applicable to cannabis and hemp businesses.
