Canada Goose said it is working closely with federal, provincial and local health authorities and "will follow the recommended protocols to ensure a safe work environment for employees, including: implementing social distancing protocols, limiting the number of employees located within specific spaces, and increasing sanitation measures within facilities to ensure the health and safety of team members".

Last week it announced it would temporarily close its North American retail locations until March 31, and then would reassess relative to the evolution of the global health crisis.

Canada Goose announced on Wednesday it will be using its manufacturing facilities to make medical gear for frontline workers in the fight against COVID-19.

Retailers Canada Goose Holdings Inc. and Gap Inc. said they would begin production of medical gear for healthcare workers and patients to aid the battle against the coronavirus pandemic.
