About this file
This document contains a health and safety plan addendum for a federal construction contract along with details of the related federal contract opportunity. The health and safety plan addendum outlines COVID-19 workplace requirements for contractors, including immediately reporting any suspected or confirmed cases, complying with NIST COVID-19 guidance in common areas, ensuring compliance with CDC and OSHA guidelines, implementing physical workplace changes to maximize safety, establishing new requirements for worker behavior on site, and providing mandatory training and communications on updated workplace policies. It provides specifics on signage, cleaning and disinfection stations and protocols, use of face coverings, worker health checks, social distancing, gathering restrictions, revised work breaks and lunches, reducing physical contact, updated safety analyses and procedures, and shared equipment revisions. Contractors must submit the COVID-19 safety addendum and certificate of insurance for approval within 7 days of award notification, and the notice to proceed meeting cannot be held until both are approved. The related federal contract provides monthly, semi-annual and annual preventative maintenance services for an ultra pure water system in Building 215 at NIST in Gaithersburg, Maryland.
