To our membership and community business leaders and partners,

GSHRM is committed to providing pertinent information as it becomes available to us to assist the upstate business community in navigating the changes in the employment laws affected by COVID-19. We support our upstate businesses in this time of great change and uncertainty. We encourage all visitors to our site to access the following links for additional information on the Coronavirus and how to stay as safe and healthy as possible while our country grapples with this disease.

To our membership specifically, until further notice, all in-person GSHRM activities are canceled, postponed, or conducted virtually to honor the quarantine request of our government and to practice safe social distancing to keep all citizens as safe as possible.

If you would like to contact GSHRM directly, please do so at greenvillehr@gmail.com.
