“The Highs and Lows of Unions in Cannabis.”

Please join Akerman’s Cannabis and Traditional Labor Law Practices for a webinar titled “The Highs and Lows of Unions in Cannabis.”

Presented with the International Cannabis Bar Association (INCBA) and Cannabis Lab – Association of Cannabis Industry Professionals (cLab), Akerman lawyers Zachary Kobrin, Ryan Krone, and Tom Mandler will be joined by Chris Fotopoulos, Executive Vice President of Verano Holdings Corp., for an interesting discussion on increasing nationwide unionization efforts targeting cannabis employers. During this interactive presentation, participants will learn about how the current legal, political, policy, and economic conditions are ideal for widespread campaigns that will impact the cannabis industry.

Several key factors significantly increasing union vulnerability will be discussed. Topics include:

How cannabis employers are targets for UFCW and Teamsters organizing
How NLRB is making union organizing much easier
How increased national union militancy leads to elections and strikes
Increased public approval of unions
How remaining union-free is more challenging
