• 👷 Workplace Safety & Workers’ Compensation — information on workplace safety requirements, returning to fire-affected workplaces, cleanup hazards and reporting work-related injuries.
• 🏘️ Housing — information for residents of affected manufactured home communities and federally assisted low-income housing properties.
• 💼 Businesses & Licensees — information on licensing, renewals, reporting requirements and regulatory flexibility for affected licensees and businesses.
• 🚗 Transportation — information on transportation network company fares during the declared state of emergency and how to report potential violations.

The page will be updated as additional information and resources become available.
