Building Your

SARS-CoV-2 SAW Plan

Updated 4/30/20

FAMILY OF COMPANIES

Thank Everyone. What i want everyone to walk away with today. Understand where the resources are that will help you develop a plan to get your business open Open when the time is right. And feel a little more empowered that you have the proper sources to base your decisions on.

We are operating in a time of uncertainty right now. It seems society has an acronym for everything now adays. One of the collaterrals of speech evolution from first generation texting. There is one for our contemporary period too. Its VUCA. Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity. This is our lense for how we have to view our reality for a while. So what does that mean? That means those of us pick where we are going on vacation as we get in the car are going to come out the backside of this with far less ulcers than those that use an itinerary for every move they make.

Functioning with unknowns and in a state of uncertainty goes against ingrained response reflexes. When we feel uncomfortable we want to move away from whatever it is that is giving the feeling.

For a while, we are going to have to learn to operate with this uncomfortable level of uncertainty. In these moments, focusing on the next thing I can do helps me move through it. In this case where information is changing daily it is so important to constantly update your information from the sources. OUr office policy for now is “Don’t print the plan” If you do, throw it away after you read it. We treat it as a living document. I’m excited to getting into looking at the tools we used and share it. Got about 35-40 minutes of content, we will have resources available online for access including links to the sources shared here. Hopefully Cindy can moderate the questions if clarification is needed, and we will leave about 20 min for questions, remembering there are going to be many unknowns for all of us. Any questions that don’t get answered I will respond to with the best information I can within 24 hours.

What are we dealing with? Know the threat!

Coronavirus

SARS-CoV-2

Not the Coronavirus

SARS-CoV-2 is the name of the virus that causes COVID Disease 2019 or COVID-19.

This is a very important distinction. We are working to prevent the spread of the virus to reduce the chances of people contracting COVID-19.

https://youtube/4J0d59dd-qM Dr. Duc Vuong does a good job of explaining how it affects some people here.

Myths and Truth?

N95 masks are required for all work situations

Face shields are required for job sites.

I can’t go to work if I am showing any symptoms of being sick.

This is a version of the flu

I can’t catch the virus if I work alone

There is a cure

Once we get to summer the threat is over

Washing hands greatly reduces my chances of catching the virus

I need to protect my mouth, nose, eyes, and ears from the virus

I’m always required to have PPE to work

Human to human contact is the easiest way to transfer the virus

I will need to take temperatures at job sites

Understanding SARS-CoV-2 Exposure

Engineering Controls

Additional engineering controls are not recommended for workers in the lower exposure risk group. Employers should ensure that engineering controls, if any, used to protect workers from other job hazards continue to function as intended.

Administrative Controls

■ Monitor public health communications about COVID-19 recommendations and ensure that workers have access to that information.

■ Collaborate with workers to designate effective means of communicating important COVID-19 information.

Personal Protective Equipment

Additional PPE is not recommended for workers in the lower exposure risk group. Workers should continue to use the PPE, if any, that they would ordinarily use for other job tasks.

LOWER EXPOSURE RISK WORKERS

DO NOT have frequent contact with the public.

Going to talk more on sources of information later. If you take nothing else out of today, this and the next FOUR slides are the most critical! To protect all of us, the key is understanding your exposure risk on your jobs.

EO 2020-42 specifically mentions this document as the basis for essential businesses to base their operation plan. This is the OSHA Guidance on preparing workplaces for COVID-19. We will talk more later about this. One thing to understand, being in the EO, this makes the “guideline” a law (long pause) It is most likely this document will be referenced for us as well when we are given the green light to go back to work. In order to have the best chance of being ready, this is the document we are basing our work plan on.

Read the exposure risks Low then medium then switch over to page seven and point out the works in center of page

We are interpreting most of our job sites in the low and some medium risk exposure.

Jobsite Exposure Situations - Close Contact

CISC Model Language

Symptom Free - 24hrs �
Have Symptom? - 72hrs Symptom Free�
Tested COVID Positive? - Recover, then 72hrs Symptom Free�
Exposed* to another COVID Positive Person - 14-day quarantine**

*CDC Note >10 minutes

**CDC International Traveler Quarantine

CDC Interim COVID Guidance to Healthcare states: Close contact for healthcare exposures is defined as follows: a) being within approximately 6 feet (2 meters) of a person with COVID-19 for a prolonged period of time (such as caring for or visiting the patient; or sitting within 6 feet of the patient in a healthcare waiting area or room); or b) having unprotected direct contact with infectious secretions or excretions of the patient (e.g., being coughed on, touching used tissues with a bare hand).

CDC Note Close Contact/Exposure time duration on Public Health Recommendations for Community-Related Exposure:

***Data are insufficient to precisely define the duration of time that constitutes a prolonged exposure. Recommendations vary on the length of time of exposure from 10 minutes or more to 30 minutes or more.

Other state health departments are using 10 minutes as the threshold for exposure/close contact.

Regardless, once a worker is exposed to a COVID-19 postive person, they are supposed to be on 14-quarantine.
