Is a painting company an essential business

Colorado

I work for a painting company and feel like it is not an essential business and yet they are requiring us to work. We do not do any other kind of Construction only painting for residential properties. Is this an essential business?

The official statewide stay-at-home order for Colorado issued by Gov. Jared Polis defines exempt businesses that can continue operating with social distancing practices in place. The list of "Critical Businesses or Operations" under the order include: Construction, including but not limited to: "Skilled trades such as electrician, plumbers..." Critical Services Necessary to Maintain the Safety, Sanitation and critical Operations of Residences, including: "General maintenance whether employed by the entity directly or a vendor." It will likely be argued by your employer that they fall within the definition of critical services because they employ skilled tradesmen (licensed or certified painters) and they provide services that further the general maintenance of residences. If your employer does not employ certified/licensed painters - they will not fall under that definition. It is a closer call on whether painting residences falls under general maintenance. It is likely that your employer's business is exempt from the stay at home order.

I’m in south Carolina and my employer filled out a monetary form with unemployment stated laid off but didn’t tell us they even filed it until the sc unemployment contacted us individually and informed us. Our employer stated that was just in case of a lay off. How is that. And they are stated me must be at work but we are painters and go in and out of personnel residences some occupied and some recently vacant, hotels and resorts. We do painting and drywall work. How are we essential and we can’t keep the social distancing of 6 ft at all times and we share tools and we are not provided the proper ppe and we have requested it. Can we opt of due to our safety and collect our unemployment in order to stay safe during this covid-19 pandemic.

I'd say that this is a tough question. Yes, if you're someone who paints houses or does HVAC work, it's an essential business for you to run. Well, it depends. If you're going to operate your own painting company, then no. We are offering you to visit here to get skill for yourself. Painting is not an essential business; a painting company can only be beneficial as long as you know what your niche is, and you're willing to be flexible with the market conditions.
