Amazon appealing decision by Peel Public Health to close Brampton facility due to COVID-19 outbreak by Lucas casaletto Last Updated Mar 12, 2021 at 6:10 pm EDT Amazon Canada has been ordered to shut down its Heritage Road plant in Brampton, Ont. because of a COVID-19 outbreak – something the retail giant plans to appeal. The order from Peel Public Health forces the closure of all shifts as of midnight Friday requiring all workers to self-isolate for 14 days until March 27. The Peel Public Health investigation determined that high-risk exposure to COVID-19 for everyone at Amazon Heritage cannot be ruled out. Amazon responded, saying they’re seeking a formal review and are concerned this closure will “impact our Canadian customers.”
