Joint recommendations of EFBWW and FIEC “to counteract the negative impact and consequences of the current COVID-19 crisis for the construction industry”

24/04/2020

The joint recommendations prioritize the health, safety and hygienic conditions of the constructions workers, while taking in account:
• the continuity of activities without jeopardizing workers’ health and safety;
• the absorption of the negative social and economic consequences of this COVID-19 crisis and its possibly longer-term impact, in order to avoid job losses;
• the necessity to negotiate arrangements between workers’ representatives and employers’ representatives at national and company level;
• exit measures, while respecting the highest standards of occupational safety and health.
