The active workers are set to be placed on collective vacation to avoid coronavirus contamination. Reports from some employees indicate that the conditions in which they were kept were precarious, with potential contamination in accommodations and transportation to the works.
Responsible for Comperj, Petrobras assured that it had already been taking steps to reduce the number of workers at the construction sites since the 16th, when a public health emergency was declared in the state.
Among the measures, the state-owned company mentioned the daily monitoring of all workers’ temperatures and the staggering of shifts, as well as adjustments in the cafeteria and transportation. The lack of safety conditions also prompted a public action initiated by councilman Jones Moura, President of the Public Safety Commission of the City Council of Rio.
