Economic Alliance Snohomish County (EASC) is hosting a virtual Coffee Chat Tuesday, Feb. 10 on “Healthcare in Flux: What Employers and Workers Need to Know Now.” The event is focused on how evolving health care coverage, costs and policies are shaping Snohomish County’s workforce and business environment.

According to a news release, this Coffee Chat is designed for employers, Human Resources professionals, workforce partners, educators and community leaders seeking a clearer understanding of health care trends and their impact on Snohomish County’s workforce and business environment. These impacts include workforce participation, recruitment and retention, and long-term economic resilience.
