Construction action center: COVID-19 virus
Keeping the construction industry mobilized throughout the COVID-19 pandemic has proven necessary to meeting the needs of local communities and the economy. Construction workers have built, maintained and repaired critical infrastructure, health facilities and data centers, among other projects. Additionally, they have responded to immediate recovery needs before and after hurricanes, wildfires and other natural disasters. The Builders’ Association has compiled resources to help the industry continue to work safe and slow the spread of the virus.
