Reducing surface transmission of handling hard copies and papers through use of electronic devices
Description:
On construction sites, many meetings and information sessions share information in paper handouts and also use written signatures as evidence of attendance such as worker safety trainings. During COVID-19, this presents an issue of having workers touch the same objects (pen and paper). To eliminate spread by contact with papers, contractors may use alternative methods.

Hands-Free Door Openers
Description:
This jobsite example demonstrates how to use equipment or install/adapt doors with hands free opener devices to eliminate the need to touch door handles. Doors may be opened using an automatic opening electrical mechanism or foot-operated device. Place signage close to the door to remind workers to use the foot operated control. Assess whether workers can operate the device without getting off-balance while carrying a large heavy load in their hands.
