The COVID-19 pandemic continues to be an important issue for plan sponsors. In continuation of our bi-weekly COVID-19 webinar series, Groom Law Group will host the webinar, “Benefits Plans and COVID-19 – Key Issues for Employers Related to Business Relief and Tax Provisions” on Thursday, April 23, 2020 at 2:00 p.m ET.
