Re-Open Saskatchewan models a phased-in approach to slowly and responsibly lift restrictions on businesses and services. In relation to the University’s Recovery Plan, the following specific restrictions must be addressed:

• Non-essential international travel is strongly discouraged;
• Individuals identified by a Medical Health Officer as a close contact of a person or persons with COVID-19 must go into self-isolation for 14 days from the last date of exposure;
• Individuals who are household members or contacts of a person or persons with COVID-19 must immediately go into mandatory self-isolation for 14 days and call HealthLine 811if they become symptomatic;
• Protective measure for vulnerable populations. Vulnerable individuals, such as seniors and those with underlying health conditions, should continue to exercise caution and minimize high-risk exposures, such as public outings;
• Individuals should continue working from home if they can do so effectively;
• Physical distancing must be maintained, wherever possible;
• People must stay at home when they are sick;
• Enhanced cleaning and disinfection should take place in workplaces, public spaces, and recreational facilities;
• Frequent handwashing and sanitizing; and,
• Use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) where available and appropriate.
