On May 27, 2020, Ontario updated its COVID-19 Self-Assessment Tool (Tool), which was
originally launched in March 2020. The interactive Tool requires
users to respond to a series of questions and, based on their
responses, recommends what actions the user should take next.
Employers with operations in Ontario are encouraged to become
familiar with how the Tool operates as it can support them in their
efforts to keep their workplaces safe during the pandemic. The
latest update of the Tool is described below.
Determining "At-risk group" and "close physical
contact."
The Tool identifies which individuals belong to an "at-risk
group," and defines "close physical contact."
