Dispensary SOPs, or Standard Operating Procedures, are a set of instructions that define the processes and procedures for running a dispensary. Here are some examples of dispensary SOPs that could be useful:
Employee Dress Code: A dress code policy is essential to maintain a professional appearance of the employees. The policy should clearly state what clothing is acceptable and what is not.
Inventory Management: This SOP should outline the procedures for ordering, receiving, and storing inventory. It should also detail how inventory is tracked and how often it is counted.
Cash Handling: This SOP should detail how cash is collected, counted, and stored. It should also outline the procedures for making deposits and handling cash discrepancies.
Customer Service: This SOP should outline the expected level of customer service and how to handle complaints or issues. It should also include protocols for ensuring customer privacy and confidentiality.
Security: This SOP should detail the security measures in place at the dispensary, including video surveillance, access control, and alarm systems. It should also outline the procedures for handling security incidents.
Product Dispensing: This SOP should outline the procedures for dispensing products, including how products are labeled, how much can be sold at once, and how customers are checked for identification.
Product Returns: This SOP should detail the procedures for accepting returns and issuing refunds, including how to handle damaged or defective products.
