16 Jul July

With COVID-19 Guidance changing in England from the 19th July, restrictions will be eased and more people will be required to go back and ‘return to the workplace’. For more information, and how these changes may affect you, read our full newsletter by subscribing to the link below.

The Construction Leadership Council is strongly recommending the continuation of Covid spread prevention precautions in their industry. The Use of Face Coverings has been updated in line with the latest Government guidance that face coverings should be worn in crowded and enclosed spaces when people mix with others they don’t normally meet. Changes to social distancing measures should be discussed with the work force as working arrangements re reviewed and revised.

July’s newsletter also takes a look at the latest fatality statistics released from the HSE for 2020/21 and an article from the SHP newsletter gives us more insight into the causes behind increasing suicide rates in the construction industry.
