Help Us Save Tennessee Jobs
Equitable Workers' Compensation System = Economic Development = Jobs
In cooperation with The National Federation of Independent Business, the Chattanooga Regional Manufacturer's Association, local Chambers of Commerce and other business groups, the Tennessee Chamber of Commerce & Industry is hosting a series of meetings to discuss next steps in Workers Comp reform. Members of the Tennessee Chamber Human Resources (HR) Committee will present the need for change based on months of research. This will include Workers Compensation cost comparisons between Tennessee and neighboring states. The HR committee reps will also present the Chamber's position on how to improve the basic law and its administration.
We will be asking attendees who are willing to add the names of their employers to our coalition for reform and to actively lobby the 2013 General Assembly for passage of a bill that will restore equity and fairness to the system as was envisioned by General Assembly in 1918.
Although there is no fee to attend these meetings, we request that you register. Feel free to attend any meeting that fits with your schedule and to invite others who may not receive this message.
