The Federal Relief Package: Is Your Business Small, Medium, Large, Essential and/or Critical and What Do Those Terms Mean for You and Your Employees

March 31, 2020 — Kelley Drye’s Government Relations group has been tracking and analyzing the federal response to the COVID-19 pandemic and will be hosting a webinar on Monday, March 30th at 2:00 pm to address some of our clients’ most frequent questions and provide updated analysis on the federal relief package.  Topics include:

  • Stay-at-Home orders and your business operations:  What is the definition of “essential” and “critical infrastructure” and how should companies respond to state or local directives on business operations.
  • The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”):  Does my business qualify for relief in the form of a Small Business Administration loan?  What are the terms of these loans and what is the size threshold?
  • What’s in the third relief package and what will be in the 4th package?
