Bill > H194

This bill amends Chapter 94G of Massachusetts General Laws by establishing a new department of workplace and consumer safety within the Cannabis Control Commission. Specifically, the new department will have two primary responsibilities: investigating workplace safety in the cannabis industry, with a focus on air quality and ensuring first responder access, and compiling data related to mold testing in cannabis-related environments, which will be reported back to the commission. By creating this dedicated department, the legislation aims to enhance both worker and consumer protections in the cannabis industry by providing a specialized unit focused on safety monitoring and data collection. The bill represents an effort to proactively address potential health and safety risks associated with cannabis production and consumption by establishing a formal mechanism for ongoing investigation and reporting.
