Overview
Guidance is available to help businesses, communities and organizations reopen and resume operations as part of Alberta's relaunch strategy.
To keep Albertans safe and prevent the spread of COVID-19, businesses should:
- follow the general relaunch guidance and relevant sector-specific guidance documents
- identify and implement measures to comply with public health measures and workplace guidance to reduce the risk among staff and customers
An optional relaunch considerations plan template is available to help businesses determine the steps they should take when reopening:
