Coronavirus Resources
The spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) is having significant implications for the public as well as businesses here in Arlington. We have heard concerns from a number of our members about the coronavirus pandemic and its potential impact on their personal and professional lives. As the situation continues to evolve, it is important for all employers to monitor the outbreak and implement strategies to protect their workforce.
We are monitoring the situation and want to provide useful tools and resources for our members as they become available. Below is a compiled list of resources from local, state, national, and global resources that we hope will be helpful for your business in the weeks ahead.
