Relates to labor peace agreements and the cannabis industry wage board; repealer
This bill modifies New York's cannabis regulations to strengthen labor protections and increase transparency within the industry. It requires new and renewing cannabis licensees to sign labor peace agreements with unions, ensuring that existing collective bargaining agreements are not harmed if a company's market share decreases. The legislation also mandates that applicants disclose detailed ownership structures, salary ranges, and work hour averages, while establishing a new Cannabis Industry Wage Board to study and set fair wages for workers. Additionally, the bill gives regulators the authority to modify licenses or deny renewals if a company violates labor laws or fails to maintain these agreements.
