Not sure but I've been to many retail stores that are open while construction is happening.

Yes they can stay open. What type of renovations are they doing painting the walls, installing new flooring, or building an addition to the store.

i don't think so as long as WCB regulations are enforced. i still remember huge sections of metrotown being renovated with tarps, temp drywalling and scaffolding everywhere and people were still able to shop.

We do work in stores that remain open from time to time. Usually they'll drape poly (plastic) to help with the dust.

typically employers can do total particulate and respirable dust monitoring if there is an issue with employee health. There is a guideline that is followed.
