Updated shelter in placer orders have been released in the Bay Area. The current orders extend through May 30, 2020. Revisions to the orders allow construction projects to resume with specific conditions beginning May 4, 2020.

Which Counties are Included ?

The counties of Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara and the City of Berkeley all issued similar orders and gave the green light to construction projects as long as companies maintain compliance with the new Construction Project Safety requirement.
Each county (and city) have respective orders with similar safety protocols that allows for firms to resume construction, while simultaneously practicing social distancing.

What are the Protocols and their requirements?

There are two sets of Construction protocols, one for “Small Construction Projects (SCP)” and a one for “Large Construction Projects (LCP).” Both protocols require strict social distancing and job health and safety standards.

The Large Construction Project Safety Protocol requires: updated Health and Safety Plans, and both an on-site Safety Compliance Officer (SCO) and a third-party Jobsite Safety Accountability Supervisor (JSAS). 


The JSAS Role: the JSAS will work with the Contractor and the Public Health Department to provide third-party project compliance verification through documentation of visual inspections and interviews with workers during site visits.  As needed, the JSAS  will work with the Prime Contractor’s SCO to resolve any deficiencies in compliance with the Safety Protocols. The JSAS must possess an OSHA-30 certificate, First Aid training and be trained in the protocols and compliance verification.
