COVID Screening Process Questions for Staff

Workers should be asked these questions in a manner that respects their privacy. Please devise a process at your location where workers do not easily overhear the responses from their co-workers.
Each person will be asked 3 questions:

1. Are you experiencing or have you experienced in the past 10 days any of the following:
   • Fever (38°C or 100.4 F)
   • New onset or worsening of existing cough
   • New onset or worsening of sneezing
   • Sore throat or painful swallowing
   • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
   • Severe fatigue
   • Loss of sense of smell
   • New onset or worsening headache
   • New or worsening muscle aches
   • Loss of appetite
2. Have you travelled to any countries outside Canada (including the United States) within the last 14 days?
3. Have you been directed by Public Health to self-isolate?

If you answered “Yes” to one of the symptoms above (excluding fever), you should stay home for 24 hours from when the symptom started. If the symptom improves, you may return to work
when you feel well enough. If the symptom(s) persists or worsens, seek a health assessment.

If you answered “Yes” to two of the symptoms above or you have a fever, seek a health assessment. A health assessment includes calling 8-1-1 or visiting or speaking with a primary care provider like a physician or nurse practitioner. If a health assessment is required, you should not return to work until COVID-19 has been excluded and your symptoms have improved.
