The designated field leader will notify the Safety Officer about the symptomatic individual. The
Safety Officer will notify and provide details to the IC.
The designated field leader will also notify Greyshirts who worked alongside the symptomatic

field leaders will accommodate their requests. Meanwhile, designated field leaders will continue
to enforce strict symptom checks and hygiene measures at the work site.
