Covid-19 Marshal At Every Construction Site

Every construction site would have a Covid Marshal to ensure that health and hygiene measures are followed and adequate supply of personal protective equipment (PPEs) would be made available at labour camps. As infrastructure ministries look to begin construction work in tier-2 and tier-3 cities and rural centres in lockdown 3.0, the Centre has issued guidelines which have made it mandatory for every labourer to undergo a health checkup and remain quarantined for a fortnight before beginning work at the site. Detailed standard operating procedures and guidelines have been worked out for every construction site. Every work site would have a nodal officer or Covid Marshal who would be responsible for all the health, sanitation and hygiene measures employed.
