“This webinar is going to be focusing on businesses with less than five people, so really small ones,” Lisa Grigg, labor economist of the Idaho Department of Labor (IDOL), said at the start of the Oct. 8 webinar. “I hope [listeners] take away how much [small businesses] produce in our economy, but also there are a lot of blind spots in trying to see these businesses.”

The Small Business Administration defines a small business as 500 or less employees, with wide variation based on the industry sector, though Grigg said she would focus on five or less employees for Idaho.
