  Cannabis Use and Workers
          What to know
          In light of rapidly changing laws and public attitudes, NIOSH has developed a framework for addressing workers' safety, health, and well-being related to cannabis. The framework focuses on guiding questions for future research.
        Overview
        Cannabis is a genus of flowering plants. It contains compounds called cannabinoids that can have a wide range of effects on the body and brain. Cannabinoids are products found in a cannabis plant (e.g., tetrahydrocannabinol [THC] and cannabidiol [CBD]).
        Employers in all industries face challenges addressing issues of impairment among workers who consume cannabis. This is especially true for workers in safety-sensitive positions. As laws, regulations, and attitudes change related to consuming cannabis, workers' health, safety, and well-being must also be addressed. Recognizing these rapidly occurring changes, NIOSH seeks to:
          * Better understand cannabis and work-related issues
          * Provide advice on workplace policies, programs, and practices
        At a glance: Framework
        NIOSH has developed a framework for addressing workers' safety, health, and well-being related to cannabis, in light of rapidly changing laws and public attitudes, and includes guiding questions for future research. Learn more about these needs in Cannabis and work: need for more research.
          NIOSH Framework for Cannabis and Work
          Societal issues that impact cannabis production, distribution, and consumption:
            * Conflicting state and federal regulations
            * Cultural and social views
            * Economics
            * Hazards
            * Policies
            * Politics
          Occupational safety and health priorities:
            * Cannabis consumption by workers
            * Cannabis industry workplace safety and health hazards
            * Illegal cannabis production, synthetically-produced hemp-derived cannabinoids, and synthetic cannabinoid use
          Show Text Description
        Guiding questions
          * What trends and patterns exist for cannabis use by workers?
          * What are adverse health consequences of cannabis consumption among workers?
          * What is the role of cannabis in:
              + medical treatment for workers?
              + treating work-related health conditions?
              + managing chronic pain from an occupational injury?
          * Does cannabis consumption impact occupational safety and performance?
          * What evidence-based cannabis-related workplace policies exist, including for:
              + drug-testing
              + impairment detection
              + reasonable accommodation of medical cannabis use
          * What is the impact of workers' unintentional cannabis exposure, such as those exposed to second-hand cannabis smoke?
          * What are the impacts of cannabis consumption or exposure on occupational driving?
          * What is the extent and impact of use or exposures of workers to synthetically-produced hemp-derived cannabinoids or synthetic cannabinoids?
              + Examples of synthetically-produced hemp-derived cannabinoids include Delta-8 THC or Delta-10.
              + Synthetic cannabinoids are a class of laboratory made substances similar to chemicals found in the cannabis plant. Examples include 'Spice' or 'K2'.
