# COVID-19 Briefings and Compliance Guidance

 Published on May 5, 2020

During this coronavirus pandemic, federal and state legislators have enacted many changes to the laws which impact our schools. You will find that important benefit provisions, educational standards, employment practices and occupational safety requirements are now modified to adapt to the unique circumstances we’re now living under. Keenan has developed a number of *Briefings* and blog postings summarizing the changes affecting you along with links to the actual statutes, regulations or other agency guidance that provide the details.

You can access all of Keenan’s recent *Briefings* [here](https://www.keenan.com/Resources/Briefings). For our collection of resources relating to the pandemic, there is a link in the top heading of our web site labeled “[COVID-19](https://www.keenan.com/covid-19)” where we have gathered it all in one convenient place. In addition to the *Briefings* and other legislative/regulatory information, you can also access a range of information for navigating the challenges of stay-at-home orders, remote working and wellness.

Among the legislative updates we have posted over the past two months, we will highlight just a few here:
