What’s in YOUR employee handbook?

Even if your company is fully compliant with all OLCC-mandated marijuana laws and regulations, you can still expose yourself to legal pitfalls if you aren’t just as strict keeping up with state and federal employment laws. While the rapid evolution of corporate cannabis is evident in the news alone, you may not realize that state employment laws are just as volatile — and there are a lot of them.

As a business owner, you should know how to navigate this multitude of regulations. We saw one company face the consequences of violating Oregon’s sick leave law earlier this year. OSHA could be just as serious if they find marijuana producers are not adhering to state agricultural safety standards. What can you expect with an employment audit? How does Oregon and Portland’s “ban-the-box” ordinance effect who and how you hire?

Harris Bricken employment lawyer Megan Vaniman will be leading a free presentation on employment law for cannabis businesses on October 11, 2018 from 4 to 5 PM PST, followed by a reception. OSHA and BOLI are the tip of the iceberg; Megan will dive deep into state and federal legislation that can prevent your business from succeeding if you don’t proceed with caution.

Both the event and reception will take place at Harris Bricken’s Portland office. Can’t be there in person? The content in this presentation will be recorded and distributed as a webinar at a later date. Further questions about the event can be sent to firm@harrisbricken.com.

RSVP for this event at our EventBrite today!
