On Thursday, the 8th of May, employees at the Trulieve Magnolia Production Facility overwhelmingly ratified their union contract.
This is the first time in Arizona that cannabis agricultural workers have been covered by a union contact.
The three-year contract includes guaranteed wage increases, paid holidays, vacation and sick leave, personal, bereavement and paternal leave, insurance coverage for medical, dental, vision, & life, guaranteed monthly samples, and just-cause and due process for discipline/discharge (employees are no longer "at-will").
