ICAA Webinar: The CARES Act – Financial Assistance Programs for Contractors Find out how to navigate the new CARES Act (Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act), which establishes several federal government programs to provide financial assistance to businesses with less than 500 employees affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Join ICAA for a 75-minute webinar about the new law (effective 4/1/20), new sick and medical leave provisions for employees, and your rights and obligations as an employer.

Contractors with the Insulation Contractors Association of America looking for training opportunities will gain access to a set of new online programs starting in February.
