Thank you for proposing this permanent standard to protect Virginia's workers. Please adopt this proposed standard prior to the temporary standard's expiration on January 27, 2021. The pandemic has exposed deep, systemic inequities in our employment and labor structures, and the basic protections this standard will offer will benefit our Commonwealth and our workers, especially those deemed essential for the continued functioning of our lives. I am grateful for the efforts put forward so far to prioritize worker safety over corporate profits, and hope this proposal will cross the finish line in time.
