Recently we’ve advocated lowering business costs by improving the High-Performance Incentive Program (HPIP) through a simplified recertification process and extending the carry-forward period from 10 to 16 years. We led a coalition of business groups to pass the first significant workers compensation reform in 18 years bringing much needed relief to employers, as well as long overdue increases in benefit caps for legitimately injured workers. We’ve also successfully lobbied to enhance the tools to grow Kansas jobs through the Promoting Employment Across Kansas (PEAK) program and the establishment of a up-front cash incentives “Deal Closing” fund. This is the job of your Kansas Chamber. Being at the table when it matters most with the needed influence to reduce threats and promote business-friendly legislation.
The Chamber represents business owners regardless of politics, because our focus is all business. Kansas business. Join us and add your voice.
