The spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) is having significant implications for the public as well as businesses here at home and around the globe. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation have been working closely with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other government agencies to understand the impacts of this outbreak and how the private sector can support the response.
As the situation continues to evolve, it is important for all employers to monitor the outbreak and implement strategies to protect their workforce from the coronavirus while ensuring continuity of operations. While we acknowledge that the CDC has many great resources, we’ve consolidated their guidance for business based on the information available at this time to help educate employers and employees on how they can prepare for and address the impacts of the virus.
