On March 20, the Connecticut Governor issued a stay at home order. The order requires non-essential businesses or not-for-profit entities to reduce their in-person workforces at any workplace locations by 100%. Essential businesses include banks, insurance companies, check cashing services, and other financial institutions. The order is effective from 8:00 PM on March 23, 2020, through April 22, 2020, unless earlier modified, extended, or terminated by the Governor. On March 22, the Connecticut Governor issued a subsequent executive order that clarifies the scope of the original home order. Additional guidance regarding business exemptions under the executive orders has also been released.
