We are requesting all employees and subcontractors to adhere to the following:

• Staff who are not feeling well should not come to the worksite until they are free of fever (100.4 degrees Fahrenheit), signs of a fever, and any other symptoms for at least 24 hours, without the use of fever-reducing or other symptoms altering medication.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
• Limit large gatherings as much as possible, in person meetings, or congregation areas for workers.
• Practice “social distancing” with onsite workers, when feasible.  People should, if possible, maintain a minimum distance of 6 feet while interacting.
• Staff that have traveled to or are traveling to a high-risk, level 3 travel health notice countries will be required to avoid East Coast Office projects for a period of 14 days from the time you left the area. Updated information on level 3 travel health notice countries can be found on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/index.htm
• We will require that all employees enter and exit all buildings through the freight elevator locations.

East Coast continues to monitor the situation and is taking the following precautionary measures:

• Where conditions allow, group meetings will be held via webinar or other means of telecommunications. Please check with our Project Managers or Field Superintendents.
• Handwashing stations are being placed at worksites where there are not existing sanitary facilities.
• Additional cleaning and disinfecting of high-contact surfaces.
• Where conditions allow, additional soap, hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes are being placed throughout work sites.
• Superintendents must be notified immediately by subcontractor foreman if any of their staff are out sick, sent home or have a sick family member at home with COVID-19. 

Due to the ongoing and fluid nature of this situation, the policy is subject to change at any time. We appreciate your support and cooperation in maintaining a safe work environment.
