"Many problematic, vague and undecided issues from the business sector have gathered in the Employers' Association in recent weeks, in response to which we have planned a cycle of remote meetings, seminars, and trainings. Our goal is to connect the business sector with experts in the field, government representatives and other competent persons directly, so that they can be informed as much as possible about all the topics that have been put on their agenda during this period. We are glad that we see the willingness of the business sector to maintain the sustainability of business within the law and to come out of the crisis period with minimal loss of human and financial resources," - Executive Director of the Association of Georgian Employers Lasha Labadze.
An important part of the meeting was devoted to question-and-answer, within which the representatives of the companies received competent answers to the questions that were interesting to them.
The meeting was chaired by the executive director of the Association of Georgian Employers, Lasha Labadze, and the head of the legal committee, Shalva Tskhakaya.
The next meeting will be announced in the next few days and those interested will have the opportunity to register.
