Our COVID-19 Response

The well-being of our Associates is our top priority. Since March 2020, we made the decision to ask all Associates to work from home until further notice. Everyone is set up with the tools and resources needed to keep us all connected and make work-from-home routines more comfortable. We continue to follow the guidance of the provinces, municipalities & public health agencies, as well as consider the safety, health and interests of our Associates, as we assess and make decisions on reopening our office locations.
