Mitigation Measures at Project Sites
The health and safety of all Turner employees, trade partners and workers continues to be our top priority. Turner is taking steps to keep everyone healthy reduce the risk of contracting or spreading Coronavirus (COVID-19).

All Turner projects are to provide access to hand washing stations and we are cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched objects and surfaces. These areas include: hoist, break/lunch areas, lunch tables, microwaves, coffee machines, turnstiles, handrails, buses for transport of workers, doorknobs, bathrooms, and all common areas.

Turner is limiting the size of gatherings and eliminating large group meeting. Meetings take place in spaces that allow for social distancing between meeting attendees.

Turner is implementing strategies for staggering and reducing density and duration of workers in the elevator or hoist at any given time. 
 
Remote Work
Turner supports all employees in focusing on what they need to do to take care of themselves and loved ones. We want as many people as possible, especially those with high risks, to work from home.

Employee participation in business meetings, conferences or events are suspended. We will utilize remote conferencing technology tools to keep our people and our partners connected.

Turner has expanded its network capacity and has remote working tools and training available. 

COVID-19 Action Team
Turner has an action team in place devoted to establishing the manners in which we protect and support people, share information, reduce the potential for the spread of the virus, and support the continuity of our operations. The team has developed and will continue to refine protocols for responding to this dynamic situation.

Supply Chain
Turner is monitoring worldwide supply chains for actual delays that may affect our ability to maintain the schedule on our work.

Advice for Reducing the Chance of Spreading Infection
Avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands. Clean your hands often by washing them with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water is not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol. It is especially important to clean hands after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after coughing, sneezing or blowing your nose. We should also frequently clean “common” surfaces with alcohol based disinfectants. 

How Washing Hands Help Protect People
Once contaminated, hands can transfer a virus to your eyes, nose or mouth. From there, the virus can enter your body and can make you sick. Washing your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or with soap and water kills viruses that may be on your hands.

Financial Transactions
There are individuals who are using this situation to target the financial dealing of companies. We will not change payment instructions via email or text. Please do not act upon or accept any requests to change the payment instructions specified in your contract with Turner unless the communication comes directly from a Vice President of Turner in writing by regular mail, and you follow up with a phone call to Turner at a number you know to be accurate. For more information, please visit our Fraud Alert page.

Additional Information
As this is a dynamic situation, our guidance is likely to change and we encourage you to access the most up-to-date information from respected organizations such as the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization.
