50 businesses temporarily closed due to COVID-19 in B C s Lower Mainland

VANCOUVER Dozens of businesses in B.C. s Lower Mainland have been forced to temporarily close their doors in recent weeks due to likely transmission of COVID-19 in the workplace. The vast majority of those closures have taken place since April 12, when the province allowed WorkSafeBC prevention officers to begin serving businesses with shutdown orders after three or more employees test positive for the disease. The closures last for at least 10 days, but some workplaces can avoid being shuttered if it s determined to be in the overriding public interest to keep them open, according to health officials. Most workplaces have also been in the Fraser Health region that spans from Burnaby to Boston Bar, which has been a hotbed of coronavirus transmission in recent months. The affected businesses under Fraser Health include more than half a dozen gyms, several restaurants and fast food franchise locations, at least one salon and a Service B.C. branch.
