SINGAPORE: Regular checks are being done at construction sites to prevent mosquito breeding, said companies CNA spoke to, even as the enhanced “circuit breaker” measures require most construction workers to stay away.

“, contractors must continue to ensure that security, environmental control and safety of building works are not compromised during the circuit breaker period,” said BCA.“These workers who are approved to work on these strategic projects and performing essential works at all other construction sites are mostly staying at the construction sites or are allowed to travel only between the work site and their place of residence,” it added.

Ms Sam added that she has been finding mosquitoes all over her living room, although she is not sure if they are coming from the work site nearby.Companies told CNA that they have taken measures to ensure that worksites are well-maintained. All these are part of the company’s regular housekeeping measures, and are conducted across all its solar work sites, said Ms Tan.

Straits Construction, meanwhile, said it houses fewer than five workers at each of its six construction sites. The workers are isolated at their individual sites and do not travel out, said chief operating officer and executive director Kenneth Loo.
