We all have been dealing with an unprecedented time in our history with the COVID-19 pandemic that has changed our world.  We all certainly hope that we can return back to our normal lives soon.  As our businesses, offices, schools and other facilities begin to open, there are recommendations by the CDC, OSHA and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) on how the building operations and building systems should be prepared prior to safely occupying these buildings and facilities. The presentation will also help the design and construction community inform their clients, such as building owners and facility managers, on how to provide a safe working environment for all building occupants.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

• Participants will be able to review their current building/facility operation and compare to current CDC and OSHA guidelines. The participants can evaluate how their staff reacts to the implementation of these guidelines.
• Participants will be able to review their current building/facility systems and compare to ASHRAE Epidemic Task Force recommendations. The participants can evaluate how their building maintenance and facilities groups implements these  procedures into their standard maintenance procedures.
• Participants will be able to assess their client’s buildings and facilities with these guidelines and provide recommendations.  The participants can evaluate how many of their clients choose follow these recommendations at their buildings and facilities.
• The participants will be able to differentiate between the Epidemic Operating Conditions in Place (ECiP) and Post-Epidemic Operating Conditions in Plance (P-ECip) through the ASHRAE Epidemic Task force.  The participants can evaluate how their internal staff as well as clients implement these recommendations and procedures within their buildings and facilities.
