COVID-19 Pandemic

Additionally, it is recommended to follow OPH guidelines on workplace preventive practices, (such as distancing, masking when distancing is not possible, ventilation, cleaning, workplace testing, and screening programs) to help prevent transmission.

 

On occasion, the NAC may impose the wearing of masks and the enforcement of rapid testing should it be deemed reasonable and necessary to do so.

 

Due to the nature of the position, you will be required to report into the National Arts Centre (NAC) building full-time, effective your first date of employment.
