Strict Covid-19 Safety Policies<\/span><\/h3>\n

Please note this one page message encapsulates the straightforward current<\/span> time-critical policies (July 2020) in relation to all construction sites within the three main groups that we project manage. Please, for your protection and the safety of your family, friends and work colleagues, read this page and observe the rules on it in order that you can access work at the Unique Property + Argyll Group + Scotslion Group construction sites. Thankyou.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The message on this page is deliberately short so that it is easy to remember.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Until the government has Covid-19 tamed and made NON-LETHAL, we require to separate electricians\/plumbers\/joiners\/roofers\/glaziers\/decorators etc.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Simply put…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

These are our Covid-safety traffic lights.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Whatever the government traffic-light of danger\/safety says, we would add our own over-engineered safety element until everyone is absolutely sure that Covid-19 has been sufficiently eradicated and that proof of a reduction in the tragic death rates is far better than the current nightmare as at July 2020 that is especially unfolding with our friends in the American continent…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Observe the Covid19 map of death, see where you are, then make sure you behave <\/strong><\/p>\n

safely on construction sites <\/strong>and for that matter safely everywhere. Thank you.<\/strong><\/p>\n

From what Unique Property + Argyll Group + Scotslion Group have witnessed…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The 2-metre social distancing rule does NOT work very well on construction sites.<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Having also observed the devastation that Coronavirus causes up close and personal, with friends dying from this wretched virus. Consequently, we MUST insist on over-engineering the safety protocols on all of our sites.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The government recommends this…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Government Recommendation. Very Reasonable. In Practice it Fails.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We do NOT<\/span> believe<\/span> this works<\/span> sufficiently nor safely in the real<\/span> world.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

All of our sites are currently in the UK. Our family members and colleagues who work in the construction industry have accounts of appalling situations on other sites outwith our remit, where the anti-Covid19 safety protocols that SHOULD apply are breached, time after time. Innocently, accidentally and often through decades of a phenomenon known as “muscle-memory”. Actually maintaining a 2 foot safe distance is almost impossible during any given 8 hour day on a construction site.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If you doubt this…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Just think how unnatural it feels NOT to shake someone’s hand or to give your mum, brother, sister, daughter a hug.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

On building sites if you are distracted, it is all too easy to pass a screwdriver or hammer to a workmate.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If you have any curiosity at how EASY it is to catch Covid-19, just read this definitive report in the highly reputable medical journal, The Lancet<\/em>. Of all the ordinary everyday things, A SALT SHAKER is emblematic on the ease with which 4,100,000 people can become infected and 280,000 people die from Covid19 (here<\/a><\/span><\/span>).<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The simple fact is you cannot see Covid-19 without a powerful microscope, so how do you know who has it? How do you know what objects. or tools or even everyday items are safe…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If a salt shaker can infect 4 then 16 then 256 people with Covid-19 that fast,<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Construction Site Safety. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Until a vaccine, the safest way is total separation of the trades<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Generally the riskier Covid danger-places are in high pressure locations such as London, Manchester, Birmingham and other major cities.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

We are lucky. All of our sites are very rural and relatively small. Therefore we can deploy this…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

DIFFERENT PROFESSIONS ON DIFFERENT DAYS<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

To spare the embarrassment of UK construction site breaches, we add the experiences of a random Ontario site. This is common place worldwide and very worrisome…<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n
