Pair of businesses in Mississauga and Brampton partially closed due to outbreaks of COVID-19

A pair of businesses in Peel Region have been ordered to partially close due to outbreaks of COVID-19.

On Wednesday, both Matrix Logistic Services, located at 6941 Kennedy Road in Mississauga, and Cargill Beef, located at 235 Nuggett Court in Brampton, were instructed to partially close by Peel Public Health (PPH).

According to PPH’s website, a business will be instructed to close if five or more employees test positive for the virus within two weeks.

Closures may be full or partial—full closures involve the entire workplace’s premises, while partial closures may involve the mass dismissal of a shift or work area.

“Closures will allow Peel Public Health to stop further spread of COVID-19 between employees while cases in the workplace are investigated,” reads PPH’s website.
