SPPH OEH Seminar - Occupational Health Hazards in the Cannabis Industry

Over the past decade there has been a dramatic expansion of the Cannabis industry. Although thousands of new employees are joining the workforce each year, very little is known about the occupational hazards and potential health effects for workers involved in Cannabis cultivation. In this presentation I’ll discuss the occupational exposure experienced by cannabis workers, with a focus on respiratory exposures and associated adverse health effects.
