Unlock 6.0 The New World Order

Nothing else could have spelled good news for the people of this country than Unlock 6.0. Considering that the real estate sector alone employs millions across the country, the pan-demic, followed by the lockdown, left them idle. After six months into hibernation, the government announced and encouraged migrants to return to their place of work so that economic activities could resume. The onus is now on the developer to safeguard its employees and sites.

RULES TO ADHERE TO

Safety measures abound at construction and infrastructure sites. Working on a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) in the post-covid scenario for workplaces, as well as construction sites, has become the new normal. Rakesh Reddy, Director, Aparna Constructions & Estates, says, “We are taking the necessary precautions to prevent spread, as well as ease the impact of the lockdown. We are segregating our project site operations into three different shifts to ensure less crowding at the sites. Data analysis of the construction sites is employed to streamline operations and segregate teams.”

Most of them are also supplying necessary provisions such as vegetables, hand-washing soaps/liquid, water and uninterrupted power, as well as health monitoring and medical care, at construction sites. The project sites are regularly disinfected and strict personnel movement is enforced throughout the sites.
