IMPACT OF THE PANDEMIC ON THE CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS OF DPWH NUEVA ECIJA 2ND DISTRICT ENGINEERING OFFICE
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2022, Vol 7, Issue 6
Abstract
Several countries have ordered a complete national lockdown after the World Health Organization (WHO) labeled the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak a pandemic. These judgments have limited people's mobility and forced the closure of several firms in various industries. Without exception, the construction industry is a substantial growth driver for the economy. This study attempted to investigate the impact of the pandemic on the construction projects of DPWH Nueva Ecija 2nd District. The researcher provided checklists to various positions among project personnel to garner data from different sectors of the construction projects. Respondents agreed that the pandemic affected the construction projects in terms of workforce, time management, supply chain shortages, and communication. Meanwhile, the most significant concern is the health and safety on-site.
