Daycare workers across Nunavut who returned to the job during the most recent Covid-19 territorial lockdown are receiving a one-time SA国际影视传媒渢hank youSA国际影视传媒� bonus, Education Minister Pamela Gross announced in the Legislative Assembly on Friday.

Each daycare facility that reopened during the most recent territory-wide lockdown will be granted $5,000. Gross said that the reopenings were valuable because they allowed critical industry workers with young children to resume providing service while others toiled from home.

The Government of Nunavut is also issuing one-time $1,000 bonuses to each daycare employee who worked during that lockdown.
