The COVID-19 pandemic has forced many changes in the way contractors do business. They have reevaluated and introduced new safety protocols, reorganized work schedules to accommodate social distancing and sent many administrative employees home to do their jobs.
“Strangely enough, in construction, we never really thought much of remote working because the field really couldn’t do it, but COVID made the business case,” said Eric Stenman, president of Balfour Beatty’s U.S. Buildings division. “So we took advantage of the remote working opportunities provided by the pandemic.”
