Staff Health
- All staff are required to self-assess before each shift for any symptoms. Anyone displaying symptoms are required to stay home, and self-isolate if directed to do so from Island Health.
- Any employees who begin to feel ill while at work must notify management/studio owner immediately, go home, and contact Island Health for testing or self-isolation.
- Staff must continue to monitor and self assess their situation- if they test positive for Covid-19, they must follow the protocol laid out by Island Health for isolation and contact tracing.
This plan/policy is subject to change as we assess and under direction from our local health authorities on best practices.
