Revised public health directive – for Manitoulin & Sudbury districts

As part of the Stage 3 reopening, Sudbury & District Public Health has issued revised instructions under
the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act.
Dr. Penny Sutcliffe, Medical Officer of Health with the health unit says with Stage 3 the revision states all businesses and organizations must require face coverings for members of the public and employees to enter and remain in enclosed public spaces.
Distancing, masking, and other requirements also continue to be in place for indoor spaces that are only
accessed by employees.
Exemptions to face-covering requirements, such as those based on health conditions or age, continue to
be in force and businesses are not to require any proof of exemption, says Dr. Sutcliffe.
Businesses are expected to act in “good faith” with public education being an important goal.
They also must have policies, signage, verbal reminders, and hand sanitizer in place,” adds Dr. Sutcliffe.
The Stage 3 changes in effect today allow for nearly all businesses and public spaces to gradually reopen
provided they implement additional public health and health and safety protocols.
