The safety and health of all those who work in construction remains the top priority for the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB). The industry continues to adhere to all public health guidelines set forth by OSHA and the CDC. Work on a new unfinished home site occurs primarily outdoors and does not involve going onto a location occupied by residents or a public location, and there is minimal (if any) physical or transactional contact with customers.
The interactive map through the website link displays statewide stay-at-home orders and construction exemptions to those orders. We know that counties and municipalities are issuing their own orders with sometimes differing and contradictory guidance on essential services. Builders and subcontractors should contact their local HBAs with any questions about the applicability of local orders.
