When the COVID-19 pandemic began, Shawna Guevara, managing director of McKinney, Texas-based Landmark Structural Builders, wanted to send as many people home as possible.
“If the job duty or job title was not obligated contractually to be on the jobsite, then we did open it up for that person or that position to become remote,” she said.
Despite workplace changes to better manage the pandemic over nearly four years, the remote option hasn’t changed for offsite workers such as estimators, she said.
