The Halton Hills Chamber of Commerce and the Town of Halton Hills have joined forces to provide free self-screening kits to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) who employ up to 150 employees throughout the Town of Halton Hills. The goal of the program is to identify asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic individuals and prevent them from spreading COVID-19 in the workplace, at home and around the community.

The Ontario government is providing one-time payments of $10,000-$20,0000 to support eligible small tourism and travel businesses struggling to recover from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Halton Region’s Medical Officer of Health has issued instructions to businesses to help them respond quickly and effectively to the risk of a workplace outbreak. These actions will help owners and operators protect their staff, patrons and the community.
