How Can Mock Audits Help My Cannabis Business Prepare for Inspections?
Mock audits simulate real-life inspections, pinpointing vulnerabilities before regulatory bodies identify them and potentially penalize you for them. At Rudick Law Group, we help you identify these issues as a third-party observer and advise you on resolving these vulnerabilities.
What’s The Difference Between a Mock Audit and a Compliance Audit?
A mock audit is a simulated audit that a cannabis compliance attorney conducts to prepare you for a real-life audit. The term “compliance audit” is often used to describe these real-life audits, which are conducted by state regulatory bodies.
What’s Involved in a Compliance Program for a Cannabis Business?
A compliance program for a cannabis business guides operators and employees on how to comply with the regulations in every state where the company operates. Your program will primarily focus on cannabis-specific regulations, given their complexity and variance across states. It will also cover the ramifications of federal illegality on your business, as well as other important regulations that apply to all businesses, such as accessibility, labor, and data privacy laws.
How Often Should I Conduct Mock Compliance Audits?
You should audit your own compliance with the help of your cannabis compliance attorney at least once per year, though preferably twice per year. Conducting quarterly audits is an especially proactive strategy for avoiding regulatory penalties. Regulations change quickly, and regular mock auditing ensures that your business does not become non-compliant.
What Are the Main Risks Cannabis Businesses Face Regarding Compliance?
Other than the obvious risk of working with a substance that’s federally illegal, the main risks cannabis operators face pertain to how extensively cannabis regulations vary across states. For example, an edibles company that’s a multistate operator (MSO) may need to package its products differently in each state where dispensaries sell the brand. State cybersecurity and data privacy laws may require different treatment of customer data depending on the state where the customer lives. State potency limits, trademark rules, and labor regulations also vary significantly. Only cannabis compliance attorneys are qualified to advise your business on these regulations and how to comply with them.
