| Survey Respondents from 30 States and 2 Canadian Provinces | Two Most Common Legal Concerns from Respondents:

  • 1. Liability Tied to On-Site Infections
  • 2. Employee/Customer Safety

Return to Work Survey—May 2020

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Return to Work Survey—May 2020

— Survey responses broke down into 2 kinds

  • f specific measures to enhance the safety
  • f workplaces:

1. Those that can be taken quickly, unilaterally and relatively inexpensively;

  • 2. Those that require greater levels of

capital expenditure, legal analysis and employee buy-in.

— Implementation of the lower cost, easier

to implement measures (such as cleaning protocols and modifying spaces to promote social distancing) was nearly universal.

— The more difficult measures (such as

contact tracing) were for the most part not being considered at this point.

Future Contract Considerations

slide-40
SLIDE 40

Force Majeure

| Many of the standard form agreements (including AIA and

ConsensusDocs) do not have specific force majeure clauses

| Force Majeure is sometimes being used interchangeably with

excusable delay clauses in these standard form agreements

slide-41
SLIDE 41

Standard Force Majeure Clauses

| AIA A201—2017 Section 8.3 Delays and Extensions of Time

“If contractor is delayed at any time in commencement or progress of the work by “other causes beyond the Contractor’s control… or by other causes that the Contractor asserts, and the Architect determines, justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended for such reasonable time as the Architect may determine.”

slide-42
SLIDE 42

Future Contract Considerations

Owner proposed this to our GC client: Contractor shall achieve Substantial Completion as set forth on the Project Schedule (the “Contract Time”)

slide-43
SLIDE 43

Future Contract Considerations

The Contract Time compensates for weather delays and disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic including, without limitation

slide-44
SLIDE 44

Future Contract Considerations

The potential for depleted work force due to illness, material shortages due to supply chain disruptions and unusual delays for deliveries (“COVID-19 Disruptions”)

slide-45
SLIDE 45

Future Contract Considerations

The Contract Time shall not be extended for labor disputes, avoidable casualties, adverse weather conditions

  • r COVID 19 Disruptions. In the event of a work stoppage

issued by the State of Illinois, Substantial Completion shall be tolled the number of days of the Work Stoppage.

Visitor Liability Considerations

| Companies may consider implementing waivers, but not only do

waivers have a potential negative connotation to your visitors, they may not be enforceable as intended.

| The best “insurance” as to visitor risk includes comprehensive

warnings, detailed safety protocols and potential measures to disseminate information to visitors before and after visits.

— Types of Claims—

Negligence and Premises Liability

— Warnings—

On-site and through digital communications

— Waivers — Review of leases — Check-up with your Insurance Broker
