Response to COVID-19

At Dandivica Facilities, we are actively and continuously following the COVID-19 pandemic, globally and in the U.S. In alignment with our core values, we continue to make safety a top priority. We are taking appropriate steps to mitigate exposure to COVID-19 and new variants, and to maintain transparent communications. We are working collaboratively to ensure the health and safety of our employees, customers, partners and communities.

Public Safety

Our key focus always is to provide a safe and healthy working environment on all our projects. We are working actively to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 and its new variants on our employees and stakeholders, while continuing to maintain safe operations. Our safety management policies (SMP) are designed and implemented to provide a safe working environment for all workers on all client engagements. The SMP mandates the creation of construction work plans and daily hazard analyses to identify work activity risks so they are properly assessed, understood and mitigated.

We implemented additional health and safety measures and precautions to address COVID-19 specific exposure risks, including:

  • providing additional alcohol-based hand sanitizer and wash stations
  • requiring and enforcing social distancing
  • enforcing a Zero-Tolerance for Working Sick Policy
  • increased and enhanced cleaning and sanitizing by third-party specialist cleaning contractors of high touch surfaces, high traffic areas, equipment, tools and vehicles
  • adherence to our glove policy requirements onsite
  • adhering to the CDC’s PPE guidance in offices and on jobsites
  • remote working and shift rotations, where necessary
  • screening measures at jobsite entry gates, where necessary

Dandivica Facilities’ specific health and safety response is based on guidelines and recommendations by the Centers for Disease Control, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and World Health Organization and construction industry sources. We continue to develop good practices, take additional preventative steps, and seek global, national and regional health authority and industry guidance.

Additional Measures

Dandivica Facilities established a US COVID-19 Coordination Response Team, as well as Local Coordination Response Teams in every market. These teams are tasked with monitoring this evolving situation, sharing information, compliance, implementing protocols, reducing exposure, and supporting our teams and operations.
