All construction projects are facing challenges during the pandemic. In order to best manage these challenges, construction clients need to ensure necessary steps are taken to address each specific project and that the appropriate risk mitigation practices are in place.
Here are some recommendations construction clients should take in order to keep worksites safe:
– Sites where there is a commitment by the insured to be fenced must be fenced. Entrances must also be locked.
– For sites without on-site security, it is suggested to install remote surveillance cameras.
– The temporary heating must be shut off and all flammable and combustible materials must be removed.
– Valuable equipment that is not permanently installed should be stored in locked trailers or completely removed from the site.
– It is important to reduce the risk of water damage by closing the main valve.
