With the spread of COVID-19 and the partial, temporary and full closures of many businesses, we know that small business owners have questions about how to deal with their employees. Join Stephen Wolpert and Marc Kitay, partners at award-winning employment law boutique Whitten & Lublin for a session to answer questions like:

1. Am I allowed to lay my staff off during this emergency? What are the consequences of doing so?
2. What if I can’t afford to rehire them when the emergency ends?
3. Are my employees eligible for employment insurance or wage subsidies? If I am the owner but I am on payroll, am I eligible?
4. What steps can I take to protect myself from claims by my employees?

This event will be streamed online. Please check back on Monday for a link to the video stream
