Updates to Safe Management Measures and Workplace Testing Requirements

The Ministry of Health has announced updated Safe Management Measures and Workplace Testing Requirements on 16 February 2022. For all construction worksites and supply work premises, the updated measures include:

Safe distancing will not be required between individuals in all mask-on settings (i.e. workers who are in the same team with their masks on will not need to maintain safe distancing)
Safe distancing of 1 metre is still required between workers from different teams
From 18 February 2022, vaccinated workers in the construction sector who are currently on Rostered Routine Testing (RRT) regime will no longer be required to continue testing. Only unvaccinated or partially vaccinated workers residing in the dormitories will still be required to undergo the 3-day supervised Fast and Easy Testing (FET)-RRT regime.

Vaccination remains key to enhancing workforce resilience against COVID-19. We urge all workers to get vaccinated and to get your booster shots when offered.

We would like to remind all worksites to verify the vaccination status and keep a proper entry of all personnel entering the site. We seek your continued cooperation to comply with the updated safe management measures to keep our worksites safe.

简化安全管理措施和工作场所检测规定

卫生部已经于2022年2月16日宣布简化安全管理措施和工作场所检测规定。所有建筑工地和建筑材料供应场地需遵守的简化防疫措施包括：

在所有人都佩戴口罩的场所，不再规定人们保持安全距离（即：属于同一团队的工人，只要佩戴口罩就不需要保持安全距离）。
不同团队的工人聚集时仍需保持1米的安全距离。
从2022年2月18日起，建筑业中已接种冠病疫苗的工人将无需进行定期检测。只有未接种疫苗或还未完成疫苗接种而且居住在客工宿舍的工人，仍需在监督的情况下继续进行3天制的定期快速检测（FET-RRT）。

接种冠病疫苗仍然是加强劳动队伍抵御冠病病毒能力的关键。我们敦促所有工人接种疫苗，并在被安排接种追加剂时前去接受注射。

我们要提醒所有建筑工地做好核实进入工地者疫苗接种状态的工作，并对所有进入工地的人员进行登记。我们促请您继续给予全力配合，遵守最新的安全管理措施，以保障工地上所有人的安全。
