CKL remains in the Green zone (Standard Measures), according to the Ontario government.
However, very recently the Green status was changed.
Previously, in a workplace, for example, masks were not required among staff and workers not within a public area of the business or workplace.
Now, however, that has changed.
Now, if staff/workers are performing tasks indoors that require them to be less than two metres from an unmasked or improperly masked individual without a barrier (e.g. Plexiglass, partition, wall), appropriate Personal Protective Equipment must be worn, including proper protection for eyes, nose and mouth.
At a minimum, this would include a medical mask and eye protection.
So, whether in a “public area” or not within your workplace or business, EVERYONE must now be wearing masks when within six feet of one another.
This may mean re-arranging work stations, consider returning to work-from-home arrangements and changes to WFH protocols.
