Saskatchewan Pandemic Restrictions Lifted
February 2022
Changes
Starting Monday, February 14, 2022, proof of vaccination or negative PCR tests will not be required to enter Saskatchewan businesses, workplaces, and other public venues. The remaining public health orders requiring masking in indoor public spaces will continue until the end of February.
Therefore, any businesses that choose to require proof of vaccination will no longer have the legal protection of a public health order. After February, masks will no longer be mandatory, but businesses can choose to continue requiring masks for employees and patrons.
Impacts
- Proof of vaccination records and QR codes will still be available for residents to travel to other jurisdictions where they are required.
- Vaccines and rapid tests kits will be available.
- Government recommendations include “wearing your best mask, taking advantage of free rapid testing, regular handwashing, staying home when ill and getting vaccinated, including your third/ booster dose as soon as you are eligible.”
- Businesses can impose reasonable rules for employees and non-discriminatory conditions for entry, such as wearing a mask and physical distancing.
- Businesses should post clear signage with the store’s health policies.
