The British-Portuguese Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce its next webinar: “COVID -19 | Simplifying Lay-Off”:

As a result of the exceptional measures put in place by the Portuguese government to control the COVID-19 pandemic, an unprecedented business crisis is affecting many companies throughout the country, being exceptionally hurtful in the Algarve.
