BETTER-THAN-EVER BUYER’S GUIDE

Bruce Beggs

I don’t know what I could say about our annual Buyer’s Guide issue that you don’t already know. After all, this marks the 38th year that American Coin-Op has published the directory of manufacturers and suppliers of products and services of interest to vended laundry owners and operators like you.

Well, I should remind you that it’s a comprehensive tool with the ability to connect you with leading vendors serving the self-service laundry industry today.

It remains a definitive source for boosting your purchasing power.

Our 2020 Guide begins on page 6 with the Products directory.

Once you identify a company (or companies) that interests you, then flip to our alphabetical Manufacturers & Suppliers directory beginning on page 14. Here, you can find their mailing address, phone numbers, website address and e-mail address.

Do you have a special place where you store key reference materials on or near your desk? That’s where our Buyer’s Guide belongs.

And if you find yourself searching for a vendor while away from the office, our Buyer’s Guide can be found 24/7 at AmericanCoinOp. com; click the “Buyer’s Guide” link found under “Resources.”

Between our print/digital edition and our website, we’re your source for solutions.

To use the guide, simply look up the name of a product or service in the Products Directory and then turn to the Manufacturers & Suppliers Directory beginning on page 14 for information on how to contact the various companies that make the specific product or provide the service.

In some cases, the Manufacturers & Suppliers Directory will also contain other coin laundry-related products or services not listed in the Products Directory.

The Manufacturers & Suppliers Directory contains addresses, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses and web addresses for the companies.

When you call on one of them, let them know you read about them in American Coin-Op. Keep this issue handy, because the next Buyer’s Guide print edition won’t be published until next year.

Workplace Growing marijuana usage presents employers with challenges (Photo: © alistairjcotton/Depositphotos)

by Phillip M. Perry

I

llicit drugs are increasing in the workplace. And marijuana is leading the way.

The textile care industry, including self-service laundries, is paying close attention to the issue, as evidenced by the general educational session on Workplace Risks of Legalized Marijuana that drew a sizable crowd during last year’s Clean Show.

What should employers do? The answer has become more complicated with the growing number of states legalizing cannabis for medical and recreational use.

Should drug tests even include marijuana anymore? If they do, and evidence of marijuana use pops up, should employees be penalized? And further: Do employers have to accommodate for the medical use of marijuana under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act, or state human rights laws?

IMPAIRED WORKERS Such questions are moving to the front burner as employers face a greater risk than ever from a growing culture of impairment that shows no signs of tapering off anytime soon. Workforce drug positivity hit a 14-year high in 2018, according to a new analysis from Quest Diagnostics, a leading provider of drug test information.

For a growing number of individuals, cannabis has become the illicit drug of choice.

“Marijuana is the second most widely 32

abused substance nationwide, after alcohol,” says Amy Ronshausen, executive director of Drug Free America Foundation Inc., St. Petersburg, Florida. “According to a survey by drugabuse.com, more than one in five respondents said they use marijuana recreationally at work during work hours.

Nearly 5% admitted to daily use and more than 13% use it more than once a month.”

Why the sudden upsurge? It’s clearly due to the growing acceptability of marijuana by society in general.

“The legalization of marijuana on the state level has continued to grow since California first allowed the drug’s use for medical purposes in 1996,” says Joe Reilly, president of his own drug testing consulting firm in Melbourne, Florida. “Typically, states will first pass legislation legalizing medical marijuana. Later, they allow its recreational use.”

Thirty-three states now have medical marijuana statutes. Ten states plus the District of Columbia allow both recreational and medical use of marijuana. And the numbers grow every year.

Legalization makes marijuana more socially acceptable.

“When a substance is legal and has massive amounts of marketing behind it, there are going to be more consumers,” says Ronshausen. “This is concerning because we are talking about a substance that is impairing people and has a significant impact on health and public safety.”

A COSTLY HABIT For employers, the downsides of marijuana are clear.

“Workplace drug abuse is costly in terms of lower productivity, higher tardiness and absenteeism, greater use of medical benefits, and increased incidents of pilferage and shrinkage,” says Dee Mason, president of Working Partners, a consulting firm based in Canal Winchester, Ohio.

And then there is the liability. As marijuana becomes more popular, employers face a greater risk of lawsuits when dealing inappropriately with individuals under the influence.

“It’s critically important for any business to protect employees and the public,” says Reilly. “At smaller companies especially, one accident can be devastating.”

Unfortunately, designing workplace policies that call for appropriate responses to marijuana use is easier said than done.

“Employers are struggling to adapt to changes in state marijuana legislation,” says Faye Caldwell, managing partner of Caldwell Everson PLLC, a Houston-based employment law firm specializing in workplace drug testing. “Each state has different requirements for employers, and many of the laws are quite vague.”

CONFUSING LAWS Two things are certain: In every state, it is allowable to have a policy that prohibits the use of marijuana on the job, and prohibits an employee from being impaired www.americancoinop.com

But beyond Employers also need to be aware that that common framework, variety abounds. employers can have zero tolerance policies “Some state marijuana laws are more for marijuana use and can test for mari- some municipalities have passed laws about favorable toward employers, and others juana,” says Smith. “But employers cannot marijuana.

counsel,” says Reilly. “Then decide how the business’ current workplace policies need to change to conform to state laws.”

He points out some common areas.

“Suppose your existing policy calls for termination when an employee fails a drug test. Should you change the policy to allow exceptions for legitimate marijuana medical use? And what if the employee is in a safety-sensitive position, such as operating a forklift, or working on building roofs, or working with children? You cannot allow people to work in such positions while under the influence of marijuana. Will you terminate them, or accommodate by moving them to safer positions when possible?”

The answers to all of those questions must conform to state law. The specifics about current and changing laws are important, but so is a sensitivity to larger issues that can impact policy decisions.

“To come up with workable policies, employers need to evaluate the nature of their workforce, the presence of safetysensitive work positions, and the availability of prospective employees,” says Caldwell. “The last factor can be of particular importance given the greater number of people using marijuana and the low unemployment numbers in many areas of the country. The employer with too restrictive policies may not be able to hire enough otherwise qualified applicants to fill the available jobs.”

The solution can often involve balancing

safety with liability.

“Employers need to reach some sort of balance between the creation of a safe workplace and the risk of litigation,” says Caldwell. “Reaching that balance can be difficult. For example, an employer may be tempted to state that accommodation for marijuana use will only be provided to the extent mandated by law. However, that employer needs to not only look at marijuana laws, but also consider the disability and human rights laws that may provide protection in a given state.”

TESTING FOR MARIJUANA One thing is for sure: Employers may still outlaw on-site use of marijuana.

“In states where marijuana is legal, you can still ban its use in the workplace, just as you can with alcohol,” says Reilly. “Nothing in the statute prevents an employer from maintaining a drug-free workplace, whether for medical or recreational purposes.”

That sounds good on the surface. But a problem has arisen with the packaging of marijuana in new forms.

“We are not just talking about a joint, which would be easy to see and smell,” says Ronshausen. “We also have products like granola bars, soda and candy that contain marijuana. Without actually looking at the packaging, how would you know employees are using the drug?”

One way to spot use is, of course, to test. We have already seen that states are

n CBD Complicates Issue n Marijuana in smokable or ingestible form has been getting the lion’s share of attention from employers looking to formulate a good workplace drug policy. But there’s a related substance, also growing in popularity, that can cause its own problems. That’s cannabidiol, popularly known as CBD. This extract from the marijuana plant is ingested for health reasons, and is not considered a controlled substance if it contains less than 0.3 percent—three tenths of 1 percent, not 3 percent—of THC, the marijuana plant extract that causes people to get high.

While that sounds like a straightforward guideline, problems arise because the CBD sold on today’s market is not regulated.

“The CBD that people are ingesting may have higher levels of THC than 0.3 percent,” says Dr. Donna R. Smith, regulatory compliance officer in the Tampa Bay, 34

AMERICAN COIN-OP MARCH 2020

0320aco_p32-35.FINAL.indd 34

Florida, office of Workforce QA, a nationwide third-party administrator of drugfree workplace programs. “Additionally, employees may be using a larger quantity of CBD than normal. In either case, the employee’s drug test may detect THC above the cut-off level for a positive test.”

That can be bad, because such a test result might penalize employees unnecessarily.

Smith advises employers with drug testing to tell employees something like this: “We are not prohibiting the use of CBD, but you are using it at your own risk because we do test for THC. If your CBD product contains enough THC, and you use it frequently enough, you may test positive for THC. You will then incur the disciplinary actions consistent with a positive drug test.”

ACO

complicating this issue with a patchwork of laws that dictate when testing can and cannot be used. And there’s another problem: No marijuana test has yet been devised that can indicate impairment. That’s a big difference from alcohol testing.

“Normal workplace drug tests can only reveal that an employee has recently used marijuana—not that the employee is actually impaired at any given point in time,” says Caldwell.

While blood tests can reveal the level of marijuana, currently no consensus exists as to what level signifies impairment. Indeed, the new methods of ingestion can result in blood test variances.

“While smoking marijuana can result in a quick spike in THC blood levels, that is not the case for other methods of ingestion,” says Caldwell. (THC is the principal psychoactive constituent of cannabis.)

“While ingesting marijuana as an edible, some people might appear very impaired, but their blood levels of THC might never climb very high.”

If it all sounds too complicated, why not just avoid the issue as much as possible?

“Some employers are deciding to stop testing for marijuana, because of the complexity of the issues, litigation risk and limited availability of workers,” says Caldwell.

“And in those states that prohibit adverse employment action for off-duty recreational marijuana use, employers may wonder if any purpose at all is served by such testing.”

Whether a test ban is a good idea depends on the laws of the state or states where your business is located, and the nature of your business.

And putting a halt to testing is no panacea, says Caldwell: “Not testing poses its own risks—such as decreased productivity and employee safety issues.”

Indeed, a total testing ban can keep the employer from determining if a certain accident was caused by marijuana use.

“If I were advising an employer who was adamant about dropping their marijuana testing, I would urge them to at least test for marijuana post-accident,” says Reilly. “They should also test any time an employee is exhibiting signs and symptoms of some drug influence.”

COMMUNICATE WITH EMPLOYEES Testing, then, may not disappear from the workplace anytime soon. But if testing alone can’t cover all the bases, how does an employer know an employee is impaired by www.americancoinop.com

marijuana use?

“There is no exact answer,” says Caldwell. “I encourage my clients to train supervisors to spot behavior that is characteristic of impairment, and to have policies that call for specific steps to take.”

Suppose, for example, an operator of a forklift is seen to be acting in an erratic manner that might suggest use of marijuana or other drug. “Your policy might call for steps such as writing a report on what is observed, having the employee take a drug test, and removing the employee temporarily from duty.” These policies must be approved by an attorney knowledgeable about your state laws.

Whatever the decision your business makes on drug policies, communication with the workforce is critical.

“I like a lot of transparency on this topic,” says Caldwell. “Let your employees know your policy and if it calls for accommodation. And give people the opportunity to do the right thing by telling them they cannot come to work impaired and they cannot use marijuana in the workplace.”

Take extra care with those employees who say they are imbibing the substance.

www.americancoinop.com

0320aco_p32-35.FINAL.indd 35

“I encourage employers to have candid conversations with workers who are using marijuana,” says Caldwell. “Talk with them about when they use it, how they use it, and what to do to avoid being impaired on the job.”

INSURANCE RATES As we have seen, the growing number of state laws legalizing marijuana is causing an increase in the use of the drug by employees. Will that translate into higher rates for employers’ liability and workers’ compensation insurance? Experts say it’s too early to tell, but the answer could well be yes.

“It could take a few years, but we anticipate higher insurance rates in those states legalizing marijuana,” says Ronshausen.

“In a study reported by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, U.S. employees who tested positive for marijuana had 55% more industrial accidents, and 85% more injuries, than employees who tested negative.” Insurance rates go up for employers who experience more accidents.

Rates may also increase for a related reason.

“In those states that offer workers’ compensation insurance discounts to employers who maintain drug-free workplaces, drug testing is required—and it must include testing for marijuana,” says Smith. “If employers decide to not test for marijuana, they risk losing their insurance premium discount.”

TAILOR POLICIES The successful workplace policy will be tailored to the specific needs of an employer’s workplace. To avoid costly errors, experts advise seeking legal counsel, looking at your state laws, updating your policies and educating your workforce.

“There is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of a workplace marijuana policy,” says Caldwell. “We are still in our infancy on this topic. The biggest challenge right now is uncertainty.”

DISTRIBUTOR LOW LAUNDRY EXPANDS VIDEO SERIES Equipment and supplies distributor LOW Laundry has released more videos online about maintaining and servicing commercial laundry equipment, expanding its series of YouTube videos for Laundromat owners to better manage their business to more than 1,400.

The free video series has been created to serve as a self-learning guide for laundry business owners to understand various products, explore equipment operations, and maximize the value of their investment, LOW Laundry says, adding that it has “invested substantial resources” in the endeavor.

A videographer frames a shot as an LOW Laundry employee prepares to discuss the inner workings of a piece of a equipment. (Photo: LOW Laundry) The videos feature in-depth information about various makes and models of commercial laundry equipment and conducting repairs and maintenance to gain maximum usage. There are episodes that detail servicing of machines and dealing with parts replacement.

CRANE PAYMENT INNOVATIONS ACQUIRES CUMMINS ALLISON Crane Payment Innovations, which provides banknote and coin validation, cashless payment systems, and asset management software, reports it has acquired Cummins Allison, an Illinoisbased provider of coin, currency and check handling solutions, as well as ATM machines. Transaction terms were not announced.

The privately held Cummins Allison has been owned by the Jones family since 1942.

“We see this change as very positive for our customers,” says William J. Jones, chairman and CEO, Cummins Allison. “It brings together two great American companies with tremendous expertise in payment and currency processing. Our customers will have more choices for new and existing products and services, which will contribute to their ultimate success.”

“We are extremely excited about the new opportunities created 36

by the acquisition of Cummins Allison,” says Jan-Hinrik Bauwe, president, CPI. “The natural fit of our portfolios enables us to move forward in a way that will help our customers better achieve their goals.”

ROGERS RETIRES FROM STATEWIDE LAUNDRY EQUIPMENT AFTER 20 YEARS Jim Rogers, vice president of sales for distributor Statewide Laundry Equipment, has retired after 20 years of service, the company reports.

Rogers helped the Statewide team evolve in the Florida marketplace where the comJim Rogers pany has locations in Miami, Orlando, Tampa and Jacksonville. Statewide last year also opened a Smyrna, Georgia, office.

He was instrumental in creating and improving Statewide’s open houses staged annually in March and September, the company says.

“His fun personality, passion, positive attitude and experience will surely be missed,” says Statewide Laundry Equipment President Frank D’Annunzio. “We wish him the best in his retirement.”

David Chadsey has transitioned into the VP of sales role and his responsibilities have been expanded to include the Georgia and Carolina Speed Queen territories, the company says.

EVI TO ACQUIRE COMMERCIAL LAUNDRY EQUIPMENT CO. Commercial laundry and drycleaning equipment distributor EVI Industries has executed a definitive purchase agreement to acquire substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of Richmond, Virginia-based Commercial Laundry Equipment Co. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed, but financial consideration includes a combination of cash and EVI common stock, EVI says.

CLE is a distributor of on-premise and vended laundry products and a provider of related installation and maintenance services to the new and replacement markets of the commercial laundry industry.

Miami-based EVI says the acquisition expands its sales and service presence in the Mid-Atlantic states, coinciding with its strategy to build distribution and service density in geographic markets through which it may provide additional products and services and improve customer service.

Consistent with EVI’s operating model, CLE will continue to operate under its existing name, with its existing staff, and under the leadership of President Tom Brittle.

CLE has a large customer base that is loyal to its knowledge, experience and sales/service capabilities, EVI says.

“CLE is a unique acquisition in that it serves customers in a (continued on page 40) www.americancoinop.com

Loyalty

Attended vs.

Promotions and incentives are often used to draw customers to a laundry. Matt Miller, president of equipment distributor CoinO-Matic, envisions a more comprehensive loyalty-building approach.

There’s no magic formula when it comes to choosing a coin laundry’s operational model but certain factors can affect the call. Mike Enz from equipment distributor Laundry One weighs both approaches.

Having a Disaster Recovery Plan

Maximizing Your Coin Laundry’s Value

With such a plan in place, a laundry can be ready to cope with fire, severe weather or other incident and return to operation as quickly as possible.

Robert “Bo” Steiner, district director at the U.S. Small Business Administration, talks planning strategy and execution.

When it comes to boosting a store’s value, certain factors have stood the test of time.
