    and slow the spread of the COVID-19 virus has led to major economic and social
    repercussions

    continuity throughout our chicken protein supply chain and maintain supply

    resilient is in full alignment with public policy: supporting the Federal and Provincial
    authorities in their work to contain the spread of the coronavirus

Focus Is on Running Operations Safely & Smoothly: Five Workstreams

           Keeping the chicken protein food chain safe, responsive and resilient

                     Our Guiding Principles and Actions

  Processing         Awareness of processing sector operating below normal capacity and challenged by
                     labor absenteeism, different working conditions, decreased efficiency, higher in-
                     plant costs, as well as being impacted by market demand volatility.

New Challenges       Our Actions
    At Plant         • Connect with industry to create “common ground” on supply, service,
   Facilities          processing contingency plans, and emergency management
                     • Weekly meetings: strategic leadership (14 to date) and operational (16)
                     • Daily, monitoring plant risk, rates and reliability
Responding To COVID-19:
Processing Sector Operating In A Dramatically Changed Environment

•   20 Ontario processing plants are in operation; throughput monitored daily

•   Majority of plants operate 1 shift, 5 days a week- capacity 4000 to 175,000 birds per shift

•   Current reduced capacity reflects adapted ways of working to secure employee’s health

•   COVID-19 infections among processor employees has been limited, to date

•   Contingency plans are in place to ensure plant continuity in case of increased infection levels

•   Plants continue to adapt to customers, product and size mix, weekly demand volatility

•   Beyond processing challenges, logistics bottlenecks have also impacted market service

                                                                                                      23
