Oregon cannabis workers unionize
"
At least two collective bargaining contracts between Oregon cannabis workers and the dispensaries that employ them have been signed, and more are expected to partake in collective bargaining as the industry develops.
The move to unionize by some cannabis workers strengthens the role unions have historically held in negotiating workplace conditions for their members, as labor unions enter a brand new market.
And the trend is expected to grow: As many as 50 Oregon cannabis businesses have expressed interest in unionizing to the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 555. The union represents more than 20,000 retail and manufacturing workers in Oregon and Washington.
The UFCW is one of the largest unions in the nation, with more than 1.3 million members in the U.S. and Canada. It has already begun representing cannabis workers in Washington, who signed a collective bargaining agreement in June.
