Are you a construction firm working in NY? We found this great presentation by Domenique Camacho Moran, Partner and Head of the Labor & Employment Practice at Farrell Fritz addressing some of the parameters that various state and city agencies are recommending and goes through safety guidance for the construction industry.
CLICK HERE for the slides from the May 29, COVID-19 Town Hall: NY’s Safety Guidance for the Construction Industry. This PowerPoint touches on everything that deals with safety in the workplace for construction employers.
Further, it seems to make decent sense from a work safety standpoint. We suggest you forward this to your P.M.’s and your safety personnel to make sure your construction firm is thinking about these issues these next few months.
Unfortunately, this problem does not seem to be going away anytime soon. Especially in the workplace, we need to demonstrate safety precautions for our workers in the midst of a global pandemic. Addressing safety measures can be a good review for the post-pandemic workplace. Hopefully, this event will create safer work sites for the construction industry, as well as all the other workplaces around New York.
Welcome to the “abnormal”, at least for the next few months.
