The province announced on Wednesday that Peel Public Health is partnering with various large companies to set up workplace vaccination clinics on-site for employees who cannot work from home.

According to a statement, Loblaw Companies, Walmart, HelloFresh, Magna, Purolator and Air Canada will all set up their own on-site clinics, which will be up and running later this month.

They are joining large companies organizing employer-led vaccination clinics like Maple Lodge Farms, Maple Leaf Foods, and Amazon Canada in the Peel region.

Ontario is in the middle of expanding its vaccine rollout and sending more doses to hot spots in the province. Ontario recently announced that any adults living in a hot spot could book a vaccination appointment as of Monday, May 3.
