How We’re Keeping You Safe – Physical Distancing, Sanitation, and More:

• Employees with a fever or cold- and flu-like symptoms such as a cough, sore throat, runny nose, or body aches are required to stay home.
• We are regularly disinfecting common areas throughout the day, particularly areas such asrestrooms, seating areas, and high-frequency touchpoints throughout the Centre.
• Hand sanitizer dispensers are available at entrances and in common areas.
• We are encouraging social distancing practices, including the use of distancing markers in the Centre.
• We’ve installed new signage reminding shoppers and employees of safety precautions.
• Business and service providers that choose to re-open are responsible for maintaining occupancy levels in order to allow staff and customers to maintain a physical distance of at least two metres, except for brief exchanges.

Do Your Part – Customer Health Guidelines:

• Please review and practice the following guidelines to ensure you are protecting yourself and
  others:
• These requirements will be enforceable under public healthorders.

• Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, or wash them with soap and water.
• Maintain at least 2 metres distance between yourself and others to avoid spray from coughs,sneezes, or speaking.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth, which can transfer viruses from your hands.
• Make sure you, and the people around you, follow good respiratory hygiene. Cover your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Dispose of used tissues immediately, and wash your hands.
• Stay home and self-isolate even with minor symptoms such as cough, headache, or mild fever,until you recover.

• Keep up to date on the latest information from trusted sources, such as your local and national health authorities.

Frequently Asked Questions:

 Why are you open? Ontario is still under a state of emergency. We have remained open during the State of Emergency to provide essential services to Ontario residents in accordance with the guidelines in place by the Government of Ontario. Some of our other retailers are reopening while reinforcing social distancing measures and health and safety protocols recommended by health authorities. 

If “gatherings” are limited to 10 people, how is it OK for Georgetown Market Place to open?
The gathering limits are related to gatherings of people in one location, versus overall building occupancies.  In accordance with Provincial guidelines, we have signage throughout the centre reminding shoppers to practice physical distancing and are regularly monitoring all areas of the mall to ensure there are no large-group gatherings. We applaud the collaborative efforts everyone is making to respect these guidelines.

Will you limit the number of people allowed in the Centre?
There are currently no provincial guidelines related to the number of guests we can have in the Centre, but we are monitoring all areas to ensure there are no large group gatherings and everyone is following physical distancing protocols.

How can you think this is a good idea to reopen? This is dangerous!
We truly appreciate your concern and understand some people may not feel comfortable visiting us at this time. Please know we are following the provincial health authority guidelines closely to ensure our guests, retailers and employees are safe.At this time, the province has not made masks mandatory and we will continue to follow the guidelines set forth by health authorities and the government. Mask wearing has been encouraged in enclosed spaces with large crowds, however with our physical distancing measures in place this is not a current concern at our Centre. Individual retailers may enforce mask-wearing inside their stores if they wish.

Based on the best advice of Ontario's Chief Medical Officer of Health, the Ontario government has issued a new emergency order under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act to prohibit organized public events and social gatherings of more than five people, effective immediately. This order replaces a previous emergency order which prohibits organized public events of over 50 people.

We'd like to remind everyone that if you're out for essential business to practice physical distancing and reduce exposure to other people. Avoid close contact (within 2 metres) with people outside of your immediate families.

Let's stay safe and get through this together, everyone!
