The Pennsylvania Chamber of Business and Industry recently launched an initiative to help businesses reopen safely during the COVID-19 pandemic and jumpstart the economy.
The initiative, Bringing PA Back, will provide employers with critical information about re-opening. This includes employment opportunities, best practices from businesses that continued operations throughout the crisis, cleaning and safety standards, and policy recommendations aimed at reviving the economy.
“We now must focus on our next phase: re-opening businesses and determining what bringing Pennsylvania’s economy back will look like – an issue that we have spent the last several weeks meeting about with local chambers, statewide business, and local government groups,” PA Chamber President and CEO Gene Barr said. “We are dedicated to working on behalf of the Commonwealth’s business leaders as we look to restore a sense of normalcy both in our economy and our way of life, and move forward in a safe and productive way. Our rich history shows we are a people who can rise to any challenge and our organization stands ready to work with elected officials, public health experts, and employers on implementing a workable process to get back to business in a responsible way. ”
