Over the past few weeks, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the operations and activities of business, governments and citizens around the world. That is no different for Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) and Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL). During this period of unprecedented change and international activity, both organizations have been confronted with difficult and extraordinary decisions that would have seemed hypothetical only a few weeks ago.

In alignment with actions recommended by the Canadian government and public health authorities, CNL is making preparations to reduce operations at all sites beginning at the close of business tomorrow, Wednesday, March 18 until Monday, April 6.

Like other organizations across the country, CNL is closely monitoring the status of the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada and around the world, and is taking measures to ensure the health and safety of its employees and the general public.
