Special Committee on Covid-19 Response
Briefing by ICTU, HSA and CIF Representatives on the Reopening of the Construction Industry
Dr. Sharon McGuinness:
Our understanding of the protocol is that if someone is in a room, he or she should keep it to less than two hours.
If the public health advice is now recommending that, we will have to look at it. I think it depends. There are issues around contact tracing, etc., which is part of the reason we also have contact logs in the protocol. I did not hear that specific advice but this is the importance of having linkage, as we do, with the public health piece.
