The University of Guelph has paused its mask requirement as of July 1, 2022, with masks no longer required indoors or outdoors at U of G facilities. The University will continue to monitor public health trends and evaluate the need for masking and other COVID-19-specific measures. Please determine your own level of comfort for the task at hand when choosing personal protective equipment (PPE), including whether to wear a mask. PPE required for work tasks (e.g., eye protection, gloves when using chemicals) must continue to be worn.
