Membership Luncheon - Shared Work Program: Keeping Momentum When Business Slows

Employment Security Department (ESD)'s Shared Work Program: 
Keeping momentum when business slows.

It can happen to any business. Demand for your product or service slips. Maybe the market goes in the tank. All you know is your business is in a fix, and you've got hard decisions to make. You don't want to lay off your skilled employees, but what else can you do to cut costs? Employment Security has an alternative called the "Shared Work Program" Learn why more than 96 percent of enrolled employers would recommend it to other businesses.

The May luncheon is sponsored by Columbia Bank.

Columbia Bank is a Northwest community bank headquartered in Tacoma, with comprehensive solutions and expertise to meet the evolving needs of businesses and individuals.

Growth is vital to remaining a preferred option for customers. It advances the services and expertise we provide on their behalf. Columbia Bank has grown both organically and through acquisition, in cases where we recognized the benefits of a strong fiscal and cultural fit. In the process, we've leveraged our community-minded, locally committed way of doing business from a single branch to a 150+ branch regional footprint throughout Washington, Oregon and Idaho.
