The Housing Secretary, Executive Chairman of the Home Builders Federation and Chief Executive of the Federation of Master Builders have written to the housing industry to make clear that house building – and its supply chains that support it – should continue working securely. The government is clear that work can continue if this is done in line with public health guidance.
Earlier this year, the government worked with the industry to produce a clear and simple Charter on safe working, and updated Site Operating Procedures have been published by the Construction Leadership Council. Guidance on moving home must be followed and there is government guidance on working in other people’s homes.
