L’ANZA LAUNCHES RECOVERY PACKAGE FOR HAIRSTYLISTS AND COMMUNITY

Santa Monica – 4/14/2020 For Immediate Release – The United States Treasury recently rolled out its stimulus package and L’ANZA Healing Hair Color & Care, a professional hair care company based in Santa Monica, just launched its own. As a family-owned and independently operated company, L’ANZA stands strong with stylists, small businesses and the communities affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. To support L’ANZA stylists and salons, L’ANZA CEO & Owner David Berglass has assembled a $4.4 million-dollar recovery package that includes online education, business support, salon products, and marketing support.

He believes this package will help businesses prepare for their big comeback. “This package will help L’ANZA salons get ready to re-open stronger and better than ever”, says Berglass. Once the stay-at-home order is lifted, packages including Free Back Bar Treatments, Hair Color and Retail products, along with marketing and educational support will roll out nationwide.

While stylists and consumers are confined to their homes, L’ANZA has launched daily FREE interactive online education classes with their award-winning team of Creative Directors and Healing Artists. L’ANZA delivers education in color, cut, and style FREE through Facebook Live, every weekday. These salon-ready techniques are then archived and available through IGTV via Instagram for future learning. For the consumer at home, L’ANZA continues to post how-to videos, along with tips and tricks for at-home rituals and maintenance to help keep everyone “zoom-ready” until salons re-open.

In addition to product and educational support, L’ANZA commissioned business coach Steve Gomez to lead motivating online sessions via Facebook Live.

UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE FLEXIBILITIES:

SOURCE: https://www.dol.gov/coronavirus

Check with your state’s unemployment insurance program regarding the rules in your state.

The link below provides redirects to state-specific details.
https://www.careeronestop.org/LocalHelp/UnemploymentBenefits/find-unemployment-benefits.aspx

The Employment and Training Administration announced new guidance outlining state flexibilities in administering their unemployment insurance programs to assist Americans affected by the COVID-19 outbreak.
https://www.dol.gov/newsroom/releases/eta/eta20200312-0

Under the guidance, federal law permits significant flexibility for states to amend their laws to provide unemployment insurance benefits in multiple scenarios related to COVID-19. For example, federal law allows states to pay benefits where:

• An employer temporarily ceases operations due to COVID-19, preventing employees from coming to work

• An individual is quarantined with the expectation of returning to work after the quarantine is over

• An individual leaves employment due to a risk of exposure or infection or to care for a family member.

In addition, federal law does not require an employee to quit in order to receive benefits due to the impact of COVID-19.
