David Parker, vice president, Human Resources, Duravant, joins UnPACKed with PMMI to offer direction to the industry on ways companies are handling human resources in the time of coronavirus.

Stay tuned for more podcasts with offering guidance around COVID-19 in an effort to keep the industry informed, strong and connected.
