COVID-19 Infection Prevention in Construction
California employers are required to establish and implement an Injury and Illness Prevention Program (IIPP) to protect employees from all work hazards, including infectious diseases. This guidance does not impose any new legal obligations. It contains information for construction employers on ways to update their IIPPs to include information on employee training and preventing the spread of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the virus that causes COVID-19, at construction sites. This is mandatory in most California workplaces since COVID-19 is widespread in the community.
