A survey conducted by the National Cannabis Prevention and Information Centre (NCPIC) has found that up to one in five blue collar workers may be affected by cannabis at work, according to a recent report on Channel 10’s The Project.
The survey of more than 500 Aussie blue collar workers from numerous industries found that 21% of respondents admitted to using cannabis with 4 hours of going to work.
It’s a sobering thought, as blue collar workers are often in control of trucks, fork lifts and other heavy machinery while at work. Cannabis use can impair thinking, coordination, concentration and balance.
