MAX Minutes with Stuart Andreason, Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta

March 27, 2020 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am

As coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) spreads around the world and across the United States, many policymakers and public health officials are encouraging employers to tell workers to work remotely or to stay home when they or their family members are sick. There are significant questions, though, about how many people can work from home. Many U.S. workers in retail, restaurants, manufacturing, and other occupations cannot do so.

On March 27th, Stuart Andreason with the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, Center for Workforce and Economic Opportunity will join MAX to explore who can work from home and identify practices and policies to support workers who cannot work from home in the event of a pandemic like COVID-19. Mr. Andreason will also highlight policy options for providing short-time compensation as a response to workers who have to self-quarantine.

Join us on March 27th, 9:00 AM, for a timely and virtual conversation on an issue affecting us all.
