Seyfarth Shaw, LLP recently issued the following announcement.
The Western States Pact declares that health outcomes and science will guide when the governors of California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, and Colorado will modify stay at home orders. As these states begin a phased return to work, companies must comply with detailed legal requirements established by various state and local health authorities.
Please join us as we discuss business-critical topics for employers on the west coast. The webinar will include live polling as a way to collect and share feedback on the myriad of issues impacting participants.
