COVID-19 Checklist on Mask By-law & Sample Policy
Under the Reopening Ontario Act, the use of masks or face coverings is mandatory in all indoor
public settings across Ontario. Wearing a mask or face covering is also mandatory in a vehicle that
is operated as part of a business or organization. Read the Province of Ontario regulations for full
details.
In addition to provincial regulations on mandatory mask or face coverings, the City of Toronto By-
law 541-2020 and City of Toronto By-law 664-20 require a mask or face covering to be worn in all
indoor public spaces in Toronto and in common areas in apartments and condominiums.
More information about masks and face coverings is available here.
The following checklist will help business operators comply with the City of Toronto by-laws.
Operators can use and adapt the sample policy as appropriate for their organization.
Checklist of Requirements for Establishment Owners/Operators
▢ Create a mask policy for your establishment (see sample policy below).
▢ Communicate this new policy to employees, visitors, patrons and tenants.
▢ Post signs at all entrances to the premises in high visibility areas containing the following text:
ALL PERSONS ENTERING OR REMAINING IN THESE PREMISES SHALL WEAR
A MASK OR FACE COVERING WHICH COVERS THE NOSE, MOUTH AND
CHIN AS REQUIRED UNDER CITY OF TORONTO BY-LAW 541-2020.
The mandatory mask or face covering poster can be downloaded for this purpose.
Also find the poster in multiple languages.
▢ Train your employees on the City by-law and your policy, including who is exempt.
▢ Train your employees on how to communicate with, and accommodate people who are unable
to wear a mask. Communicate in a respectful and non-stigmatizing way.
▢ Consider offering alternative services to people who are unable to wear a mask. For example,
provide online, telephone, curbside pickup or off-peak hour services.
▢ Communicate these options to employees, visitors, patrons and tenants (e.g. post a sign in
the window).
Revised February 18, 2021
▢ Ensure that all employees, visitors, patrons and tenants wear a mask that covers their nose,
mouth and chin indoors, unless they are exempt (e.g. children under the age of two and people
with certain health conditions).
▢ Do not request proof of an exemption. People who are unable to wear a mask due to age,
health or other reasons do not require proof for the exemption.
▢ Provide a verbal reminder to employees, visitors, patrons and tenants to wear a mask.
