New jobsite restrictions for California construction contractors enacted. May 15, 2020


Client Alert: New jobsite restrictions for California construction contractors enacted
California Allows Construction Work During the COVID-19 Crisis but Imposes New Restrictions

The good news for the construction industry in California is that the State of California and many of its counties have now designated the construction industry as an "Essential Business" for COVID-19 purposes, allowing contractors in California to ply their trade in nearly all facets of the construction industry–if they choose to do so.

Still, the construction industry has not been liberated entirely from the legal burdens of COVID-19. Rather than ban particular types of construction work, the new strategy for California lawmakers is to issue sets of jobsite restrictions that govern how the contractors perform their work.
