DM No. 2020-0258-A, and other relevant issuances.
3. Should mandatory testing be implemented by the employer, it should not constitute as an added
cost to the employee. All individuals who are at risk of contracting COVID-19 shall be tested, and
these include the following groups1: (1) suspect cases, (2) individuals with relevant history of travel
and exposure (or contact), whether symptomatic or asymptomatic, and (3) healthcare workers
with possible exposure, whether symptomatic or asymptomatic.
4. Testing of Symptomatic and Close Contacts2.
a. All employees experiencing symptoms of COVID-19 and those who are close contacts must

employers shall promote work-life balance, especially in these trying times, through proper
scheduling of activities and workforce rotation.
12. Employers classified as large and medium-sized private establishments (i.e., those with total assets
above PHP15M) are encouraged to provide shuttle services to their employees. Minimum public
health standards should be enforced in the shuttle services. All vehicle types, as long as not
expressly prohibited by the Department of Transportation (DOTr) through an issuance, may be used
for shuttle services.
13. As smoking is a risk factor for COVID-19, smoking and the use of e-cigarettes or vaping are strictly
prohibited in the workplace/construction sites and premises.

above PHP15M) shall provide for employees’ temporary lodging or quarters for the duration of the
project. The minimum public health standards and protocols enshrined in DOH AO No. 2020-0015
and other relevant issuances shall be also implemented within the temporary lodging or quarters. If
the employer is unable to provide for his employees’ temporary lodging or quarters, the returning
employees shall be subjected to the pre-deployment procedures upon every entrance into the
workplace/construction sites and premises. This shall in no way be construed as a right by the
xi
employer to limit or prevent his employees’ from leaving the work premises, to access essential
goods or otherwise, subject to the conduct of pre- deployment procedures upon the employees’
return or upon every entry by said employees into the work premises.
20. Field offices, employees’ quarters, and other common areas shall be regularly maintained, including
the daily disinfection of such facilities.

prevention in the workplace and of DTI-DOLE Joint Memorandum Circular No. 20-04-A.
22. Large and medium private establishments (i.e., with total assets of above PHP15M) are mandated
to designate an isolation area of one room for every 200 employees, which must be situated near
the entrance/s or in a nearby facility, for employees needing further assessment due to elevated
temperature, presence of flu like symptoms, any “yes” answer to the Health Declaration, or
exposure history to a COVID-19 case or probable case.
23. The designated isolation area shall have adequate ventilation and shall have sufficient provision of
PPEs for the health personnel and symptomatic patients (e.g., face shields and medical-grade face
masks). The isolation area shall be provided with chairs and must have a dedicated restroom. It
shall be disinfected once every two (2) hours and/or immediately after any infected or confirmed
COVID-19 employee leaves the area.

are strictly prohibited within the construction site premises.
xii
30. Clustered and staggered deployment of employees within the construction site shall be observed to
minimize personnel contact and for easier contact tracing.
31. Proper waste disposal shall be provided for infectious waste, such as PPEs and other waste
products coming from outside the construction premises.
32. If one confirmed case of COVID-19 is detected in the construction site/workplace, such place shall
be disinfected with an appropriate disinfectant solution (0.5% bleach solution). The conduct of a
comprehensive disinfection by specialists is recommended.
33. The site must be locked down for 24 hours prior to disinfection to lessen transmission to sanitation
personnel. During the disinfection process, all doors and windows should be opened to maximize
ventilation. The site may only be opened 24 hours after the disinfection process.
34. Employers shall ensure that the temporary closure of their establishments for disinfection purposes
will be done in accordance with the National Task Force Against COVID-19 Memorandum Circular
