New OSHA Guidelines on COVID-19 and other Updates

2/5/2021

 
The Puerto Rico Department of Labor has required of employers certain strict requirements since last March 2020 as informed of on their website: 
https://www.trabajo.pr.gov/covid19.asp
Both our firms, CHES Services Corp. and IEMES, PSC, are not only properly registered as required locally with an autocertification but have maintained compliance with the different versions of our internal COVID-19 Exposure Control Plan (ECP) since April 2020.

By adjusting and keeping our employees informed (including but not limited to following statistics published by Puerto Rico's COVID Citizen Task Force) and integrated in decision-making of their involvement in diverse projects, we have been able to stay healthy and occupied with diverse tasks. Our team has assisted several clients in implementing their controls and identifying alternatives for safer coexistence with this biological threat. 

Recently,  OSHA published further guidelines and recommendations to assist employers in providing a safe and healthful workplace. The published document ​“Protecting Workers: Guidance on Mitigating and Preventing the Spread of COVID-19 in the Workplace” also outlines existing safety and health standards. ​
