Cannabis Workers in Rhode Island Join Local 328

October 30, 2024

Workers at the Sweetspot Medical and Recreational Dispensary in Exeter, R.I., recently joined UFCW Local 328. The workers are employed as patient counselors, floor leads, and inventory specialists.

These workers joined our union to build and secure good jobs for their futures and communities, and to work towards better fulfilling their company motto, “Worry Free.”

“It has been a tremendous honor to be a part of something that not only benefits my co-workers and I, but sets a precedent for ethical cannabis sale and consumption nationwide,” said Sydney Anderson, who is a patient counselor at the dispensary.

“Working in an industry that is so profitable, and where workers are so often overworked and underpaid, it feels amazing to have organized so effectively,” said Jeffery Branch, who is also a patient counselor at the dispensary. “Our union win isn’t just for us, but for generations of cannabis workers to come!”
