The plan describes how to prevent worker exposure to coronavirus, protective measures to be taken on the jobsite, personal protective equipment and work practice controls to be used, cleaning and disinfecting procedures, and what to do if a worker becomes sick.

CISC is comprised of 25 trade associations, including NAPA. The response plan, provided as a Microsoft Word template, can be tailored to individual companies. This response plan also includes a training checklist, a toolbox talk, an employee notification form, and a document that identifies that the industry is an “essential” or “critical” infrastructure industry for shelter-in-place orders. Scroll farther down this web page to read more about the asphalt road construction industry’s additional suggested practices for preventing the spread of COVID-19, and incorporate these practices into your response plan as needed.
