Workplace Cleaning Tax Credit for COVID-19
• AGD began working with a coalition of
stakeholders in late 2020 to create a
temporary tax credit available to
businesses and other organizations to help
them cover COVID-19-related workplace
safety expenses
• The Healthy Workplaces Tax Credit Act
(S.537/H.R.1944), bipartisan legislation to
create such a tax credit, was introduced in
March in both the House and Senate
• Qualified expenses include cleaning,
disinfecting, and air filtration solutions;
personal protective equipment (PPE);
physical distancing and safety
technologies, plexiglass, and other
modifications; as well as employee
training and certification
• Working to have language included in
pending legislative packages
