This presentation focuses on how best to reduce the burden on businesses by helping them find, understand, and comply with governmental laws and regulations through a cross-agency, intergovernmental web portal. It includes an overview of the Business Compliance One Stop (BCOS) initiative. Using Businesslaw.gov as its platform and starting point, BCOS is being built by a team of 9 federal partners, 6 states, and private sector contractors under the leadership of the U.S. Small Business Administration. BCOS initiative is focused on four functional areas (environment, workplace health and safety, employment, and taxes) and several industries (truckers, miners, chemical manufacturing, and food).
