Description

The stimulus package, minus the minimum wage increase, is ready for debate on the House floor. Between wages, paid leave, employer liability, and changes to the SBA loan programs, the restaurant and retail business model has been in the spotlight all week. We’ll take a look how the industry fared and its prospects going forward. And the hazard pay conversation came to the forefront this week with two California jurisdictions deciding if restaurant workers should be eligible for the bonus. Spoiler alert - one went one way and one went the other. We’ll take a look at whether or not restaurants will continue to be a target. We’ll discuss those issues and wrap it up with the legislative scorecard.
