Toronto Section 22 Class Order

Employers should be aware of the requirements in the city’s Class Order which are complementary to – but distinct from – the provincial Grey Level regulations.

Under the Section 22 Class Order, all persons who own or operate a workplace will be required to comply with additional public health measures, including the following, during the period in which the workplace is in an active outbreak of COVID-19:

  1. Ensure the use of masks by every worker in the workplace at all times for the duration of the outbreak. The only exceptions are if a worker is eating or drinking or other limited exemptions.
  2. Follow Toronto Public Health instructions pertaining to COVID-19 testing for workers.
  3. For a workplace common area (i.e. washrooms, lunch rooms, change rooms):
    • ensure that 2 meters distance between workers can be maintained;
    • limit capacity to 25% of maximum occupancy; and
    • post signage indicating the maximum number of people permitted in each common area.
  4. Provide contact information for a designated contact person at the workplace to manage communications and implement any additional measures as required by Toronto Public Health.
  5. Maintain a record of every worker that attends the workplace during the outbreak.
  6. Comply with instructions from infection prevention and control personnel from Toronto Public Health, including allowing entry into the workplace for inspection and to support enhanced infection prevention and control measures.
  7. Post Toronto Public Health signage about physical distancing, hand washing and mask wearing.

Failure to comply with the Class Order may result in enforcement action, including a fine of $5,000 for an individual or $25,000 for a corporation for every day or part of each day for which non-compliance occurs or a ticket in the amount of $750.
