Cannabis advisors and agents-in-charge at the Zen Leaf cannabis dispensary in Evanston, Illinois unanimously ratified their first collective bargaining agreement with Teamsters Local 777. Zen Leaf is a subsidiary of the multi-state operator Verano Holdings (OTCQX:VRNOF).
伊利諾伊州埃文斯頓的Zen Leaf大麻股藥品店的顧問和負責人一致批准了與團隊工會777的第一份集體談判協議。Zen Leaf是多州運營商Verano Holdings（OTCQX:VRNOF）的子公司。
"We successfully negotiated and ratified this collective bargaining agreement in less than three months, which is probably the fastest turnaround we've had for a first contract in this industry," stated Jim Glimco, president of Local 777. "We're organizing and winning contracts faster than ever before because everyone in this field recognizes we're a force to be reckoned with. Congratulations to all of the workers who stuck together to demand a contract with the same high standards we've secured for other multi-state cannabis operators in Illinois."
「我們在不到三個月的時間內成功談判並批准了這份集體談判協議，這可能是我們在這個行業中首次合同的最快週轉，」團隊工會777的主席Jim Glimco表示。「我們正在組織並比以往任何時候都更快地贏得合同，因爲這個領域的每一個人都認識到我們是不可忽視的力量。恭喜所有爲了與我們在伊利諾伊州爲其他多州大麻股運營商爭取到的相同高標準而團結在一起的工人。」

The three-year contract includes a number of changes including more paid holidays, a minimum 14% wage increase over the lifetime of the agreement, due process during disciplinary matters, and a guarantee that a successor employer will assume the contract if another company buys the dispensary. Workers also receive retirement benefits, something that is only available to union members at the company.
爲期三年的合同包括一些變更，包括更多的帶薪假期、在協議有效期內最低14%的工資增長、在紀律事項中的正當程序，以及保證繼任僱主在另一家公司收購藥品店時將承擔合同。工人們還獲得了養老福利，這是公司中只有工會成員才能享有的待遇。
"Cannabis workers are organizing and bargaining better contracts faster because they know a Teamsters contract brings stability to their jobs and respect from the industry for the work they do," said Jesse Case, Teamsters food processing division director.
