RICHMOND, Va. (WWBT) - Blame it on the pandemic, blame it on more people turning to chicken these days, but it’s all turning into sticker shock when we’re purchasing poultry.
The price of chicken is going up, if you have not noticed. Richmond-area restaurants owners are certainly paying attention to the spike and the reasons why.

Richmond, VA Virginia has become the first state to establish a long-term COVID-19 workplace standard.
The standard went into effect Jan. 27, two weeks after the commonwealth s Safety and Health Codes Board voted to adopt a more permanent standard and replace an emergency temporary standard that went into effect in July.
Gov. Ralph Northam (D) completed his review of the regulation with no revisions Jan. 22. The standard contains language that allows the Safety and Health Codes Board to convene a meeting and “determine whether there is a continued need for the standard” within 14 days after the governor and state health commissioner declare the end of Virginia s COVID-19 state of emergency. The standard divides job tasks or hazards into four exposure levels: very high, high, medium and lower. It contains requirements that cover engineering controls, administrative and work practices, and personal protective equipment.
