Un Programa de Seguro de Licencia Familiar y Médica en Georgia: Lo que empresarios necesitan saber

Muchos de estos pequeños empleadores quieren ofrecer beneficios robustos como la licencia remunerada familiar y médica porque les ayuda a competir con empresas más grandes por talento laboral.

Small Business Majority released a national scientific opinion poll—including oversamples in five states—that found small business owners oppose denying services to LGBT customers based on religious beliefs, rights to free speech or freedom of artistic expression. Further, the poll showed that a majority of small businesses support enacting federal and state laws to protect LGBT individuals from discrimination in places of public accommodation. Small business owners feel that nondiscrimination policies are good for their state’s business climate and their own business’s bottom line.
