On June 24, the U.S. Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy hosted an online roundtable discussion to review new healthcare and general industry guidance for pandemic safety management.
After completion of the roundtable, the SBA shared presentation materials utilized during the meeting:
(1) Andrew Levinson’s presentation on the new OSHA COVID-19 Emergency Temporary Standard.
(2) Lee Ann Jillings presentation on the new OSHA COVID-19 guidance for General Industry.
(3) Federal Register notices regarding new funds for Susan Harwood grants for Workplace Safety and Health Training on Infectious Diseases, Including COVID–19 grants for non-profit organizations to conduct training for employers and workers on infectious diseases, including COVID–19 safety and health hazards in the workplace (2021-13267.pdf (govinfo.gov)) and (www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-06-24/pdf/2021-13266.pdf).
Roundtable meetings are open to all interested persons, with the exception of the press, in order to facilitate an open and frank discussion about small business-related issues. Agendas and presentations are available to all, including the press. Anyone who would like to receive roundtable agendas or presentations, or be included in the regular distribution, should forward such requests to bruce.lundegren@sba.gov. The purpose of these roundtable meetings is to exchange opinions, facts, and information and to obtain the attendees’ individual views and opinions regarding small business concerns. The meetings are not intended to communicate or achieve any consensus positions of the attendees.
