While step three in the Roadmap to Reopening Ontario welcomes customers back into businesses, and in many cases, employees back into the workplace,  Hastings Prince Edward Public Health (HPEPH) cautions local businesses.   They emphasize the fact that a Safety Plan including a 'screening tool' must be in place.    

HPEPH have provided the following updated resources for businesses to use:

  • The COVID-19 Screening Tool for Businesses and Organizations (Screening Patrons) has been updated to align with requirements for patron screening per Step 3, and wording has been clarified from previous version. The tool can be accessed online or downloaded (PDF) from the Ontario government website.
  • The COVID-19 Screening Tool for Businesses and Organizations (Screening Workers) has been updated. The tool can be accessed online or downloaded (PDF) from the Ontario government website.
  • The COVID-19 Signage Questions for Businesses and Organizations (Signage Instructions) has been simplified. The instructions can be downloaded (PDF) from the Ministry of Health COVID-19 Guidance for the Health Sector website.
