Revision 25_16 February 2022 1

1 Introduction Currently Arcadis is following CDC and Health Canada guidelines, as well as applicable government directives.

The health and safety of our people is of utmost importance to us. Arcadians are empowered to use TRACK to evaluate individual situations and Stop Work Authority anytime safety is at risk. Employees will not come to work if exhibiting any respiratory illness symptoms, including but not limited to COVID-19.

It is recommended that all field and embedded staff review and have access to the current version of this document. The most current version can be viewed and downloaded from the ANA H&S COVID-19 Resources intranet page. COVID-19 symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure to the virus. People with these symptoms or combinations of symptoms may have COVID-19:

Fever or chills

Cough

Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing

Fatigue

Muscle or body aches

Headache

New loss of taste or smell

Sore throat

Congestion or runny nose

Nausea or vomiting

Diarrhea

This list is not all inclusive. Please consult your medical professional for any other symptoms that are severe or concerning to you.

2 Guidance for Project Activities Employees will complete the following for all project activities.

2.1 Arcadis COVID-19 Health Screening Self-Assessment

Questionnaires

All employees going to an Arcadis office, a project site, or a client site will be required to complete a Daily

Screening through WorkCare’s WorkMatters app, regardless of vaccination status. Individuals should continuously monitor for signs and symptoms of COVID-19 and, if not feeling well, complete the WorkCare Daily

Screen Process again.

When individuals take their own temperature to evaluate whether they have a fever, the temperature measurements will be completed without the use of fever-reducing medicines that contains ibuprofen or acetaminophen and not within 30 minutes of exercise. The CDC defines a fever as a temperature of 100.4°F

(38°C) or greater. If the individual’s temperature is between 99°F (37.2°C) and 99.9°F (37.7°C) it is recommended the individual pay close attention for signs and symptoms of COVID-19 and complete the WorkCare COVID-19

Daily Screen Process more frequently. Individuals with temperatures of 100.0°F (37.8°C) or greater should not https://arcadiso365.sharepoint.com/sites/Intranet-ANA-Health-Safety/SitePages/ANA-COVID-19-Resources(1).aspx

Revision 25_16 February 2022 2 visit an office or project site. You may also contact WorkCare’s COVID-19 services if you are experiencing symptoms consistent with COVID-19 and are concerned it may be COVID-19.

2.1.1 COVID-19 Daily Screen Process

All Arcadis staff will register in WorkCare’s WorkMatters app. Arcadis staff can use the WorkCare WorkMatters app once a day (or multiple times a day, if appropriate) to complete their COVID-19 health screening self-assessment using the Daily Screen Survey.

Upon completion of the COVID-19 Daily Screen Process in the WorkMatters app, the user will receive a green or red completion message:

Green – Proceed to the office or project site.

Red – Do not proceed to the office or project site. Complete Survey 2 and follow end guidance. You and your supervisor will receive an email that you have not been cleared to work. You will need to conduct contact tracing with Corporate Health & Safety, if necessary. You must log into the URL or App to complete the Daily Symptom Tracker, each day you are Not Cleared To Return To Work.

Once you have been cleared to Return to Work by a WorkCare physician, you and your supervisor will receive an email that states you have been Cleared to Return to Work.

2.1.2 COVID-19 Health Screening Self-Assessment Questionnaire

(Hardcopy)

The COVID-19 Health Screening Self-Assessment Questionnaire must be:

Distributed to scheduled visitors, clients, and contractors before visiting Arcadis offices or sites.

Post the self-assessment questionnaire and post Appendix A at entrances and/or field trailers.

Minimize visitors on site. All visitors (staff, subcontractors, clients, anticipated guests, unanticipated guests) to the site must be asked to review the applicable questionnaire from the following list.

Canada COVID-19 Health Screening Self-Assessment Questionnaire for Staff (English)

U.S. COVID-19 Health Screening Self-Assessment Questionnaire for Staff, Contractors and Visitors

(English)

U.S. COVID-19 Health Screening Self-Assessment Questionnaire for Staff, Contractors and Visitors

(Spanish)

If a client has a similar questionnaire that Arcadis staff are required to complete, the client questionnaire may be substituted for Arcadis questionnaire.

2.2 Client COVID-19 Health Screening Forms

Some clients are requiring our employees to complete their COVID-19 health screening forms.

Revision 25_16 February 2022 3

You are not required to share personal medical information with clients; therefore, Arcadis is not requiring you to complete any form requesting medical information. Your disclosure of personal medical information to clients is completely voluntary.

Please understand, if you do not complete the form, you will not be allowed on the client’s sites and facilities, per the client’s directive.

Also, if you complete the form, you have an ongoing duty to provide prompt notice of any changes to any of your responses. (Some clients may require periodically signing updated forms).

If you are restricted from a client site as a result of your answers to the COVID-19 health screening form, or because you have chosen not to complete the form, Arcadis will attempt to find you alternative work that does not involve access to the client’s site or facility; although, Arcadis cannot guarantee that other work will be available.

If your Project Manager is not already aware of the client COVID-19 health screening form, please alert them when you receive one from a client.

2.3 U.S. Vaccine Policy

Arcadis strongly encourages all employees to receive a COVID-19 vaccination. COVID-19 vaccines are effective at helping protect against severe disease and death from variants of the virus that causes COVID-19. In accordance with the Arcadis U.S. Vaccine Policy, all U.S. employees are encouraged to upload the vaccination details into WorkCare’s WorkMatters portal.

Clients may require employees working at their sites be fully vaccinated or if unvaccinated, to complete surveillance testing. If the client requires Arcadis verification, Project Managers or Account Managers will reach out to HR Operations (HROperations.ANA@arcadis.com) with a list of names to be checked. If testing is required, contact Corporate Health & Safety.

2.4 Practice Good Hygiene

The best way to prevent illness is to avoid exposure to the virus. CDC and Health Canada recommend common flu and cold season preventative measures, including:

Wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.

o If hand sanitizer or soap & water are not available on site, bring your own source of water and hand soap to accommodate hand washing.

Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.

Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when sneezing or coughing.

Monitor your health daily by completing a self-assessment.

Stay 6 feet (2 metres) away from others.

Avoid crowds and poorly ventilated spaces.

Do not share Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

Maintain and thoroughly clean PPE in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.

Avoid sharing phones, offices, tools, and equipment. If sharing is necessary, clean and disinfect prior to use.

Clean high touch surfaces daily.

Get a vaccine (flu to reduce the risk of flu illness and COVID-19).

Revision 25_16 February 2022 4

2.4.1 Hand Hygiene

Hand hygiene for infection prevention is an important part of the U.S. and Canada response to COVID-19.

Washing hands with soap and water has been and will continue to be our primary method for good hand hygiene.

Both CDC and HC recommend that you wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. Hand washing mechanically removes pathogens.

Alcohol based hand sanitizer is a flammable liquid and vapor. However, there is no evidence to suggest hand sanitizer poses a fire hazard when used according to package directions and warnings. To use hand sanitizer:

Follow manufacturer instructions for use.

Rub your hands together, covering all surfaces of both hands, including between your fingers and up around your fingertips and nails.

Rub hands together for 30 seconds to allow your hands to completely absorb the product.

Allow the hand sanitizer to completely dry.

Do not touch food or anything until your hands are dry.

Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for hazards information.

If hand sanitizer is not available, Arcadis requires that project teams assess and address the need for hand washing (e.g., access to water and soap) while working on site. This can be achieved by having access to a functioning restroom, a portable hand washing station or as simple as having hand soap, bottled water and paper towels to clean hands as necessary. A handwashing sign that may be posted near handwashing stations is provided in Appendix D.

2.5 Clean Frequently Touched Surfaces

Arcadis recommends that project teams identify who is responsible for cleaning frequently touched surfaces in our workplaces (field trailers, client facilities, etc.). CDC and HC recommend that these surfaces are disinfected daily.

This includes tables, doorknobs, light switches, countertops, handles, desks, phones, keyboards, toilets, faucets, and sinks. Before using a disinfectant product, understand the appropriate uses and limitations of the disinfectant, and refer to equipment/tool manufacturer care instructions to determine whether the disinfectant is compatible

(e.g., using isopropyl alcohol to disinfect an iPhone).

CDC cleaning and disinfecting facilities: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/disinfecting-building-facility.html

Health Canada cleaning and disinfecting public spaces: https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/publications/diseases-conditions/cleaning-disinfecting-public-spaces.html

Health Canada hard surface disinfectants: https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/drugs-health-products/disinfectants/covid-19.html

If surfaces are dirty, clean them using detergent or soap and water prior to disinfection. To disinfect, most common EPA-registered or HC-approved household disinfectants will work. Use disinfectants appropriate for the surface.

If the sourcing of disinfectant products is limited, CDC and HC have outlined an option to use a diluted household bleach solution (at least 1,000 ppm sodium hypochlorite) as a disinfectant.

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207123 https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/disinfecting-building-facility.html https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/disinfecting-building-facility.html https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/publications/diseases-conditions/cleaning-disinfecting-public-spaces.html https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/publications/diseases-conditions/cleaning-disinfecting-public-spaces.html https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/drugs-health-products/disinfectants/covid-19.html https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/drugs-health-products/disinfectants/covid-19.html https://www.epa.gov/pesticide-registration/list-n-disinfectants-use-against-sars-cov-2 https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/drugs-health-products/disinfectants/covid-19/list.html

Revision 25_16 February 2022 5

Standard household bleach is typically 5.25% sodium hypochlorite (52,500 ppm), whereas ultra-strength household bleach is typically 6% sodium hypochlorite (60,000 ppm). In accordance with Hazard Communication requirements, always refer to and have a copy of the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available and on site with you. To make a daily bleach solution for use as a disinfectant:

Mix 5 tablespoons (1/3rd cup) of standard bleach per gallon of water or for a smaller spray bottle size dilution, mix 4 teaspoons bleach per quart of water.

OR

1 teaspoon (5 mL) per cup (250 mL) OR 4 teaspoons (20 mL) per litre (1000mL).

Note: Solution must be mixed daily, because the solution will lose effectiveness as a disinfectant after

24-hours.

Follow manufacturer’s instructions (e.g., Clorox) for application and proper ventilation, ensuring a contact time of at least 1 minute (for specific products and contact time information, refer to the CDC and HC links above). Check to ensure the product is not past its expiration date. Never mix household bleach with ammonia or any other cleanser. According to the HC, CDC and U.S. EPA, unexpired household bleach will be effective against coronaviruses when properly diluted.

A second alternative is to use an alcohol solution. The solution must have at least 70% isopropanol.

If supplies cannot be sourced locally, email PPErequests@arcadis.com.

2.6 Practice Social (Physical) Distancing

The CDC definition of social distancing, also called “physical distancing,” means keeping a safe space

(approximately 6 feet, 2 metres or about two arm lengths) between yourself and other people who are not from your household in both indoor and outdoor spaces. Situations where social/physical distancing should be practiced include but are not limited to tailgate and safety briefing meetings, breaks in field trailers, entering stores and workstations. Plan work activities to maximize social (physical) distancing and minimize close contact with others. Social (physical) distancing is mandatory for unvaccinated individuals and highly recommended for vaccinated individuals. If there are instances where social distancing is not being practiced where it should, Stop

Work and remove yourself from the situation. Contact the Project Manager or your Supervisor and document in the H&S App as an “Close Call” or “Unsafe Behavior.”

Additional information when working in teams is required is discussed in the “work specific situations” section below.

Note: The CDC defines close contact as: a person who was within 6 feet of an infected person for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period starting from 2 days before illness onset (or, for asymptomatic patients, 2 days prior to test specimen collection) until the time the patient is isolated.1

1 Individual exposures added together over a 24-hour period (e.g., three 5-minute exposures for a total of 15 minutes). Data are limited, making it difficult to precisely define “close contact;” however, 15 cumulative minutes of exposure at a distance of 6 feet or less can be used as an operational definition for contact investigation. Factors to consider when defining close contact include proximity (closer distance likely increases exposure risk), the duration of exposure (longer exposure time likely increases exposure risk), whether the infected individual has symptoms (the period around onset of symptoms is associated with the highest levels of viral shedding), if the infected person was likely to generate respiratory aerosols (e.g., was coughing, singing, shouting), and other environmental factors (crowding, adequacy of ventilation, whether exposure was indoors or outdoors). Because the general public has not received training on proper selection and use of respiratory PPE, such as an N95, the determination of close contact should generally be made irrespective of whether the contact was wearing respiratory PPE. At this time, differential determination of close contact for those using fabric face coverings is not recommended.

Revision 25_16 February 2022 6

2.7 Face Coverings

Health Canada and CDC recommends wearing face coverings in public settings, like on public and mass transportation, at events and anywhere you will be around other people. In the U.S., face coverings are required on planes, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation traveling into, within, or out of the United States and in U.S. transportation hubs such as airports and stations. When visiting Arcadis offices and project sites, face coverings will be worn when moving about the space, in common areas and during meetings. If social/physical distancing can be maintained, face coverings may be removed when sitting at individual workstations or actively eating in cafés. Some jurisdictions require face coverings to be worn at all times indoors regardless of vaccination status.

In Canada, non-surgical face coverings are mandatory when flying and travelling through airports. The wearing of face coverings is either required or recommended in all other public settings across Canada (indoors and outdoors).

Studies show that face coverings reduce the spray of droplets when worn over the nose and mouth.
