Why Dispensaries Use Hemp Temps
Compliance-Screened Before Day One
Every worker passes a cannabis-specific background check through CBadge before their first shift. We check against state-specific disqualifying criteria — MED, OMMA, CRA, and CCD — so your license is never at risk from a worker we placed.
No Temp-to-Perm Buyout Fee
See a worker you want to hire permanently? Convert them at any time with no conversion fee. Most staffing agencies charge 15–20% of annual salary. Ours is zero.
Employer of Record
Hemp Temps is the employer of record for every temp placement. We carry payroll taxes, workers comp, and employment liability. You get the labor without the HR overhead.
24-Hour Fill Time
We maintain a pre-screened, active talent pool in every market we serve. Most dispensary roles — budtenders, packagers, floor staff — are placed within 24 hours of your request.
Dispensary-Trained Workers
Our workers complete Hemp Temps University (HTU) training before placement — covering cannabis compliance, customer service fundamentals, and state-specific regulatory requirements.
Scales With Your Business
Seasonal surges, license expansions, or surprise call-outs — we scale with your dispensary. Add staff same-day, scale back with zero penalty. No minimums, no contracts.
