The U.S. Department of Labor (“DOL”) has invited employers and employees to engage in a “national online dialogue” in connection with the expected April 2, 2020 implementation of the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA). The DOL is soliciting comments and questions as it develops compliance assistance materials and outreach strategies related to FFCRA.
Input may be offered online at https://ffcra.ideascale.com through March 29, 2020, or through Twitter chat hosted by @ePolicyWorks on March 25, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. using the hashtag: #EPWChat.
Employers may want to speak with their counsel about comments, questions, ideas or concerns to present to the DOL.
