The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic has had signi cant e ects on di erent industries both in the public and private
sectors. The e ect of the deadly pandemic has done more than a ect the ability of persons to live their normal lives as

many industries including the cannabis industry. However, some industries have survived these trying times while some
have risen to the occasion and gotten even stronger. Where does the cannabis industry nd itself across this divide,
read on as we look into why cannabis companies are still hiring despite the obvious problems.
Cannabis companies during the COVID-19 era
Companies that have to do with video-conferencing and di erent forms of delivery services certainly bene ted
maximally from the covid-19 pandemic as more people engaged their services. The lockdown precautions that were
instituted by di erent countries put a halt in the activities of many businesses except those that were tagged essential.
This essential tag to goods and services di ers from state to state but a number of states classi ed cannabis as
essential. Naturally, states deal with matters concerning cannabis because the natural herb is still classi ed as being
illegal federally despite the fact that di erent states legalize its medical and recreational use.
The essential tag of cannabis for medical and recreational use in a number of states meant that some cannabis
companies had to increase their number of workers though the opposite was happening in other sectors. The
pandemic created a scenario where many people depended on the natural product for di erent reasons. Apart from
those that were using cannabis medically before the advent of the pandemic, some new users rose on the account of
the pandemic. This is because more people needed the calming and relaxing e ects of CBD and other cannabinoids
embedded in cannabis to help deal with the pressure of the pandemic.
Sleep deprivation and anxiety are the two common issues that have characterized many people during the pandemic.
These two conditions have been treated by CBD and other cannabis products in times past which is why stocks and
sales of cannabis products surged during the pandemic. With this, more people became reliant on cannabis as a coping
mechanism which means that cannabis companies were required to step up to meet the increasing demand for
products. Hence, the increase in the hiring activities of cannabis companies during a period when others were letting
sta go.
How have cannabis companies risen to meet this change?

Despite the fact that the situation of the pandemic and the essential tag given to the business by some states remain a
huge positive, there’s still a considerable amount of work to be done in order to make it count. Di erent companies had
to make changes to their operating structure to make this advantage count in terms of pro t. The companies were still
being a ected by the restrictions to the movement that were imposed generally. This meant that cannabis companies
had to nd ways to make products available to people though they most likely won’t be coming physically to the
dispensaries.
Many cannabis companies rose to this challenge perfectly by o ering their consumers the ability to order products
online without the need to come in physically. This was also complemented by the fact that they instituted proper digital
payment platforms and good delivery services to get the product to the desired destination without trouble. These
changes to the operating structure of di erent cannabis companies eventually brought about a situation where there
was a need for more people to come on board hence the increase in hiring being done by di erent cannabis
companies. Lightshade, a cannabis company based in Colorado made these changes to their operating structure during
the pandemic.
Cannabis companies have had to adjust and pivot considerably to take full advantage of the opportunity given and
meet the demands of consumers. The need to hire professional hands in the area of e-commerce and digital payment
has never been so important. In the socially distant world brought on by the covid-19 pandemic, job security is not a
certainty that makes the changes and the moves made by cannabis companies to protect their employees unique and
laudable.
Old roles for cannabis businesses are still important
Despite the new areas of cannabis businesses that have been brought on by the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, the
common roles of cannabis businesses and jobs (http://jobs.cannabis.net/) remain as important as ever. Changes in the
supply chain will surely a ect the business generally especially the new sectors like e-commerce, digital payment, and
delivery. Cultivation of the natural herb is always required to be topnotch and the presence of strong regulatory
guidelines and requirements means adequate personnel is needed in those areas too.

Extraction. storage, distribution, and nance roles are just some of the common sectors for cannabis companies that
need to be standardized at all times. Standardizing these arms of the cannabis company occurs in the aspect of
personnel, equipment, and resources because their contribution to the success of the venture is invaluable. The
cumulative e ect of standardization of these arms along with the new ones introduced by the advent of the pandemic is
bound to increase the sales and revenue of such companies. Cultivators, trimmers, packagers, budtenders, delivery
drivers, patient care specialists, marketing specialists, and managerial experts are common examples of employees
actively being sought after by cannabis companies.
Bottom line
Although we are gradually overcoming the COVID-19 pandemic, it's detrimental e ects on businesses will be felt for a
while before things start to return to normal. It is obvious that the importance of the cannabis industry and its products
means that in such trying times like the COVID-19 pandemic, it is highly essential to the populace. This means that why
the demand for goods and services of other industries drop, that of the cannabis industry is to be expected to
skyrocket. This is why an increase in the hiring capacity of cannabis companies has been noticed despite the fact that
some businesses are struggling.

Got Cannabis Stuck Up Your Nose? - The Story of Nose Pot is Real
While “nose candy” typically refers to cocaine our story today will attempt to rede ne the term. This article is not meant to showcase the latest developments
within the cannabis industry, or to illuminate you on new medical bene t discovered by researchers. Rather, today we aim to merely entertain by exposing this

Jay-Z Tackles the Marijuana Establishment with Provocative Ad Campaigns
While Jay-Z is currently focused solely on cannabis prohibition, the conversation can be extended to the war on drugs in general. Some of his provocative ad
slogans include, “Weed is a federal crime. Even in states where sex with farm animals isn’t”, and “there's a state in America where cannibalism is technically legal
and cannabis isn't”.

OPINION
Quit Wasting Taxpayer Money on Faux Cannabis Medical Studies
No matter the ndings from the government, the fact of the matter remains that cannabis will become legal within the next year or two [in the U.S]. I still remain
steadfast in my prediction that cannabis will be legalized on a Federal level in the U.S later this year – they will need to with all the craziness happening in the
government.
