From Gov. Bill Haslam
Gov. Bill Haslam : Workers' Compensation Reform Bill Signing
As governor, one of my top priorities is making sure we're doing
everything we can to make Tennessee the best state in the nation to
live, work and raise a family. And while there isn't a metric or an
organization that measures exactly that, there are several annual
rankings that help us gauge our progress. Several of those were released
earlier this month. Here's a quick run-down of how the volunteer state
faired:
No. 1 State for Retirement | Bankrate.com
No. 4 State for Business | Chief Executive
No. 4 State for Job Creation & Business Recruitment | Site Selection
Speaking of job creation, we've announced over 1,600 new jobs at 14
different Tennessee businesses in the last month alone. In fact, one of
our initiatives aimed at improving the state's business climate,
bringing clarity to the Workers' Compensation system through reform, is
the subject of the video above. We've
made some significant progress over the last few years despite the
difficult national business climate, but being proud of the progress
we've made doesn't mean we're going to rest on our laurels. Folks across
state government are working extremely hard to keep up this significant
momentum.
