Cannabis businesses face many “growing pains” as industry operations evolve from small backroom farms to modern large-scale industries. State Compensation Insurance Fund field staff will share safety hazards that were discovered during site visits to cannabis businesses and how they were addressed. We will share common safety and physical hazards, risk factors for musculoskeletal disorders, and exposure hazards at cannabis growing and processing facilities. Our presentation will help the participants navigate the regulatory landscape as it applies to the cannabis industry. Attendees will see examples of real-world solutions which can be applied to their own companies.
