The Governor of Vermont Phil Scott is allowing construction and manufacturing establishments to resume full operations on May 11, 2020. However, the Governor requires these companies to obey “stringent requirements” to safeguard employees and customers from the current pandemic.
These sites are subject to compliance with the safety and health requirements and ACCD guidance and the development of enhanced training programs. These requirements include the following:
- Crews of no more than ten workers per location or job to carry out outdoor work and construction work in unoccupied job sites. This may be a single unit in a residential or commercial structure or sites vacated for the duration of the construction job.
- Distribution and manufacturing operations can continue with a maximum of ten workers in any location if they are low density and ensure workers are at least six feet apart from each other at all times.
- Supporting operations may resume with the minimum amount of workers needed to carry out curbside pick-up and delivery services and in step with the guidance launched by ACCD.
