Some workers are heading back to work Monday at the Toyota assembly plant in Woodstock, Ont., after production was halted in late March due to concerns over the novel coronavirus.
A company spokesperson told Global News Radio that it will gradually resume manufacturing operations in compliance with all federal, provincial and municipal regulations and guidelines.
As part of a phased approach, roughly 15 per cent of the workforce will be returning on Monday. That number includes front-line managers, who will be joined by assembly staff later this week as a slow ramp-up to full production continues.
There will be a number of procedural changes for employees, as they will be required to wear facial protection while on site.
