Background: As COVID-19 continues to unfold at a rapid pace, employers must address the ever-evolving situation as it relates to their workforce and their business. In this webinar we will discuss unemployment benefits in The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES); new paid sick leave and expanded federal Family and Medical Leave Act in the Families First Corona Virus Response Act (FFCRA), including coverage of smaller employers; and wage and hour and other laws implicated in employer decisions to furlough, reduce hours or reduce pay for employees.
