Moved by Thomas/Almeida
Whereas on March 23, 2020, the Executive Board passed a motion to close its buildings and limit gatherings until May 1, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic; and
Whereas the Ontario government recently announced an extension of the Declaration of Emergency, which requires non-essential businesses to remain closed and limits gatherings of more than five people, until May 12, 2020;
Therefore be it resolved that the Executive Board extend the closure of its physical offices and its limitations on in-person meetings and gatherings up to May 12, 2020; and
Be it further resolved that a review prior to May 12, 2020 will be undertaken to determine further action; and
Be it further resolved that during this period, access to OPSEU/SEFPO buildings will be on an “approved only” basis.
