Site Operating Procedures updated
The Site Operating Procedures have been updated by the Construction Leadership Council (CLC) to reflect the latest Government guidance following the easing of lockdown measures in England from Saturday 4 July. The ‘one metre plus’ social distancing guidelines require workers to stay two metres apart, or one metre with risk mitigation where two metres is not viable, and it is expected that sites will maintain the social distancing measures in place.
Other changes to the Site Operating Procedures – Version 5 are minimal and include:
Updates to the ‘When to Travel to Work’ section
The latest peak times for public transport
Entry systems to be regularly cleaned rather than between each use
Drivers to have access to welfare facilities
Canteens that have been closed or offered a restricted service may now re-open.
