ORLA Regional Meetings Scheduled

ORLA staff will be on the road this September-October hosting Regional Meetings where members can engage in discussions on issues impacting their business. These meetings, held twice a year in fall and spring, provide members an informal, round-table forum to gain insight and intelligence, exchange ideas and ask questions. ​

​Topics include: New laws in effect for 2020, Paid Family Leave, Corporate Activities Tax, plastic bags/straws, new restaurant compensation solutions and tip pooling options, Oregon restaurant wage survey, Oregon Tourism Leadership Academy, as well as local and regional issues.

While these meetings are free to attend, an RSVP is very much appreciated.
