Wearing face masks isnSA国际影视传媒檛 necessary for staff of private companies in areas inaccessible to members of the public, even though some may have been led to believe that when reading a public health order issued .

The order states that under section 25(1) of the Public Health Act, people entering an indoor public place within the communities of Yellowknife, Ndilo台台, Dettah and Behchoko台虁 must wear a face mask at all times, including while entering many businesses. However, part 1(J) of the order states that while masking applies to SA国际影视传媒渃ommon areas of office buildings such as reception areas and elevators,SA国际影视传媒 the exception is SA国际影视传媒減rivate spaces and offices not ordinarily accessible to the public.SA国际影视传媒

Office of the Chief Public Health Officer spokesperson Darren Campbell on May 11 clarified that part of the order, and gave the example of Northland Utilities, where if people go into its office, it has a public-facing area where customers would have to wear masks, but in the back SA国际影视传媒 where the public doesnSA国际影视传媒檛 go SA国际影视传媒 masking is unnecessary.

SA国际影视传媒淥r like an auto body shop,SA国际影视传媒 Campbell said. SA国际影视传媒淪taff wouldnSA国际影视传媒檛 have to wear masks in there because itSA国际影视传媒檚 not a public-facing space, but employers might require staff to wear them.SA国际影视传媒

Chief public health officer Kami Kandola introduced the order on mandatory masking on the same day as she ordered all schools to close in Yellowknife, Ndilo台台 and Dettah, as cases in the N.J. Macpherson School COVID-19 outbreak mounted.

The outbreak has since grown to include 51 cases, as of May 10.
