COVID-19 Health & Safety

Saskatoon Audio Visual is committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace for all team members, customers and business partners. With that, our team members will be required to follow the recommended guidelines as set out by the Government of Saskatchewan, Government of Canada, and Saskatoon Audio Visual.

Our workplace guidelines are important, but they are only part of the solution. Our team has completed WorkSafe Saskatchewan’s free COVID-19 Work Safe course that aims to reduce anxiety for business owners, workers and customers to help sustain safe workplaces during the COVID-19 pandemic.
