Equity, Diversity and Inclusion:

COVID-19 Pandemic:

Resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, to ensure the safety of all NAC employees, and in keeping with Ottawa Public Health (OPH) guidelines, it is recommended that while working from the NAC employees should wear masks.

Whether individuals decide to wear a mask or not, we thank you for being respectful of others' choices.

Additionally, it is recommended to follow OPH guidelines on workplace preventive practices, (such as distancing, masking when distancing is not possible, ventilation, cleaning, workplace testing, and screening programs) to help prevent transmission.

On occasion, the NAC may impose the wearing of masks and the enforcement of rapid testing should it be deemed reasonable and necessary to do so.

Due to the nature of the position, you will be required to work from the National Arts Centre (NAC) building, effective your first date of employment.

Please know that although we remain under a declared pandemic, events and activities are gradually returning to the building.

Consequently, staff members are expected to return to the workplace as required, or perform a combination of remote work and work from the National Arts Centre (NAC).

Your direct supervisor will provide guidance and information related to the NAC's _Hybrid Work Policy_.
