Protective measures of contagion and dissemination in civil construction for Covid-19

The objective of study was toidentify the contention measures for contagion and dissemination in civil construction against Covid-19. The study is an integrative, qualitative review, based on data from the scientific literature published in the Virtual Health Library (VHL), SciELO and Google academic databases consulted in September 2020. The studies were selected from DeCS, with the respective descriptors and synonyms: “Construction Industry” and “Coronavirus Infections”. Articles indexed in these databases were selected according to the theme. They are literature review, books, chapters, manuals, technical reports. Articles that were unrelated to the guiding question of the study were excluded. The analysis included only one manual, which revealed that there must be a mobilization of the company to guarantee and manage the safety of employees and that basic actions such as instruction of signs and symptoms of the disease, adequacy of infrastructure and workload are necessary at construction sites. There is also evidence of the scarcity of published material on the subject, since the analysis was based on only one manual available in the consulted literature. This fact reveals the importance and need for further studies in the area, since the civil sector is necessary to maintain the economy.
