Lynne Anderson Discusses How Business Operations are Affected by Recent COVID-19 Case Spikes

Marketplace reports that recent increases in rates of COVID-19 infection and the corresponding responses by states and local governments have businesses and consumers confused.

In the article, titled “How are mask-wearing policies changing as U.S. COVID-19 cases spike?” the publication turned to labor & employment partner Lynne Anderson for insight on how recent government responses regarding increased rates of COVID-19 infection are affecting business operations.

Anderson describes the challenge of operating within overlapping state, federal and local guidelines, along with bringing in new customers while keeping employees safe from infection.

“Even if a business has decided to require that all customers wear a mask, not all customers want to wear a mask,” Anderson said.
