Posted on April 8, 2020 (updated on April 22, 2020): Safe Workplace Rules for Essential Employers: All workplaces considered essential must follow Safe Workplace Rules for Essential Employers to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Additional rules specific to construction sites:
Posted on March 19, 2020: DAS Construction Managers at Risk (CMR) and General Contractors (GC): These extraordinary times demand extra care to stop the spread of COVID-19. Construction sites are, by design, concentrations of people. As such we need to exercise practices to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our tradespeople, CMR and GC staff and their families. Center for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines need to be incorporated into the daily routine of your workers to ensure their safety. Social Distancing must be practiced, as well as the use of hand washing stations and hand sanitizing stations. Daily tool box safety briefs must include topics and updates on COVID-19 protective measures and information. Rely on your DAS Project Manager and the Construction Administrator for any questions, concerns or issues related to the jobsite, and COVID-19 effects at the jobsite. DAS wishes to continue with active construction projects as long as possible, but not at the risk of the life and safety of our contractors, their workers and their family and friends. If circumstances appear to become beyond the control of the parties to protect all concerned, and jeopardize the health, safety and well-being of workers, staff and the general public, DAS will provide further direction and instructions to you. In the meantime, please implement, if you have not already done so, the guidelines mentioned above immediately. Noel Petra, DAS Deputy Commissioner Real Estate & Construction Services |
