How to navigate construction projects during COVID-19
Enhanced Safety on the Jobsite
Basic Precautions
Every jobsite is outfitted with masks and hand sanitizer for workers, and visitors to the jobsite are kept to a minimum and by appointment.
Limited Contact
Onsite safety directors transition daily huddles to six-foot-distanced meetings, and every worker is educated and informed on CDC guidelines.
Indoor Considerations
When work moves inside, human-to-square-footage ratio is considered to avoid gathering workers, subcontractors, etc. in any one space for too long.
Tools & Equipment
Every piece of equipment that’s touched is disinfected before and after each use, and portable restroom facilities undergo the same level of cleanliness.
