Safety is paramount to PIK and is part of its world-class standards. At the construction site of One Sierra, PIK implements strict COVID-19 safety protocols to ensure everyone’s safety, fully meeting the government guidelines set in DPWH DO. No. 35.
Prior to mobilization onsite, all workers undergo PCR testing and are given basic education on observing Covid-19 safety protocols. On a daily basis, temperature checks are conducted and the overall health condition of anyone going onsite is recorded for monitoring purposes. Face masks are mandatory, as well as practicing social distancing at all times. Symptomatic team members have been instructed to notify their leaders and are immediately isolated and tested. The development also works closely with the local government unit, ready to promptly report any Covid-related health concerns that may arise. On-site barracks are available and all meetings are conducted online.
Thermal scanners, foot baths and alcohol sprayers are also provided at site entry points. There are also signs and reminders to observe basic minimum health protocols and the site is also regularly sanitized.
All these measures add to the peace of mind for everyone onsite and help ensure everyone’s well-being, while ensuring that construction is proceeding as scheduled.
