The COVID-19 pandemic is an unprecedented and challenging time for Ontario’s workers and businesses. The majority of businesses are operating in safe and responsible ways to protect their workers and customers. However, there are still some businesses that need further assistance or clarification to understand the requirements to keep everyone safe.
That’s why we are doing community safety campaigns to educate businesses and workers on public health measures required under the Reopening Ontario Act. These campaigns are being developed in consultation with local public health units, police and by-law departments, and support Ontario’s COVID-19 Response Framework: Keeping Ontario Safe and Open.
From December 2 to 5, officers will be visiting businesses in the retail sector.
Municipal by-law officers and police will also continue to do the great work they have been doing to support public health measures in helping to contain the spread of COVID-19.
Guidance and resources to help businesses operate more safely during COVID-19 are available at Ontario.ca/covidsafety and the Ontario.ca COVID-19 response framework page.
Using these resources, businesses should:
The Workplace Personal Protective Equipment Supplier Directory can assist in finding supplies and equipment.
