Volume 2022.23 Single Site Staffing Orders Expected to Expire

Volume 2022.23 Single Site Staffing Orders Expected to Expire

On October 13, 2022, the Ministry of Health confirmed that the Facility Staff Assignment Order (the “Order”) is expected to expire on December 31, 2022.

Since April 2020, the Order has limited the movement of staff between certain health facilities, including long-term care and assisted living facilities.

The expiry of the Order will mean that as of January 1, 2023, staff movement between facilities impacted by the Order will no longer be restricted.  Also, those working extra hours at straight time to make up hours they missed at other sites will no longer be required to make up these hours.

Thank you,

Jeanette Lee

Director, Human Resources
