CPWR developed a wide range of resources to help construction employers and workers take necessary precautions to keep safe during the coronavirus pandemic. In conjunction with the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), we held a regular COVID-19 webinar series for the construction industry. More than 20 webinars are available on-demand. We established the CPWR COVID-19 Construction Clearinghouse to give our industry easier access to reliable, current information.

Additional Resources include…

Workplace Guidance:
