Twelve more businesses have been shut down in the Fraser Health region due to coronavirus (COVID-19) transmission in the workplace.
Under new guidelines established by public health officials earlier this month, health authorities and WorkSafeBC can close down a place of business if there has been multiple COVID-19 cases tied to the location. Those closures are posted online by each health authority.
In its first weeks of reporting, Fraser Health closed down dozens of businesses in the region, including restaurants, retail stores, and even the Maple Ridge outpost of Service BC.
Workplace closures due to COVID-19 cases are typically in place for 10 days.
