RESTAURANT MEMBER BENEFITS


Membership in ORLA means being part of the only organization in the state devoted to protecting and promoting the interests of the hospitality industry. Membership also provides a number of benefits and access to cost-savings programs.

Protecting your interests.
ORLA deploys one of the most effective government affairs teams working to stop bad policy and support laws intended to help your business succeed. We continue to push for measures that foster economic growth and prosperity for our industry and our state.
  • ORLA worked to mitigate the impact of restrictive scheduling regulations by negotiating the removal or lessening of onerous provisions.
  • ORLA continues to pursue effective legislation to balance wages between the front and back-of-the-house.

Local representation.
Regional representatives and staff are focused on responding to the needs of our members – right in your own backyard.
  • ORLA is the only statewide association defending your business from local taxes and other unfair government revenue schemes targeting our industry.
