MINNEAPOLIS, MN (December 18, 2020) – LinkUp has just released its 2020 Cannabis Jobs Report. On the heels of legislative victories for the legal cannabis industry gained in the 2020 election, this new report provides a view of labor demand for this emerging sector.
The 2020 Cannabis Jobs Report, released as a follow-up to their industry-leading 2019 whitepaper The Impact of the Cannabis Industry on the Job Market, explores rising job demand in the legal cannabis industry. As the industry continues its upward trajectory in both revenue and job growth, the report utilizes LinkUp’s uniquely powerful jobs dataset to provide insights on the locations, companies, and occupations that are booming.
Among other key findings, the report observes the most cannabis job listings in the states of Colorado and California, two states that paved the way for legalization, in addition to a notable uptick in hiring in Illinois, Florida and on the East Coast.
