US (MI): PharmaCann workers vote to join Teamsters

Workers at the PharmaCann cannabis facility in Warren, Mich., have voted overwhelmingly to join Teamsters Local 337, taking part in a growing movement of workers in the cannabis industry unionizing with the Teamsters across the country.

Todd Lince, President of Local 337 said: "The cannabis industry is at the forefront of the modern labor movement, and we are incredibly excited to welcome our newest members into the Teamsters. This vote is the first step to ensuring workers get the compensation and benefits they deserve. Together, we can turn these jobs into careers."

The 59 newest members of Local 337 are responsible for the logistics, distribution, and manufacturing of PharmaCann products. The Teamsters already represent the company's retail workers in Illinois, but the Warren facility is the first of its production facilities to join the union. It's also the first cannabis operation in the Detroit metro area to affiliate with the Teamsters.
