More workers at the SoFi Stadium construction site in Inglewood have tested positive.
A lawsuit alleges that unsafe conditions at the SoFi Stadium building site led to construction worker Juan Becerra’s death in a fall in June.
Twenty-three of those cases have come from workers involved with the stadium; 11 from workers at the performance venue that’s under the same sail-shaped roof; three from workers in office trailers; two from workers at the park surrounding an artificial lake; and two from workers at parking lots. Of those workers, 10 were listed in the emailed announcements as asymptomatic, eight had “minor symptoms” and the severity of illness wasn’t indicated for the remaining 23.Ten cases announced by the joint venture in August have come from stadium workers. They reported first feeling ill between July 20 and July 29. Most were tested the same day as the onset of illness or a day or two after.
The joint venture has taken a series of safety measures in response to the pandemic, which include required temperature checks for everyone entering the site starting in early April, mandated coverings for the mouth and nose of each worker, and instructing workers to stay home when first feeling ill “for any reason and symptom.” Workers must not have symptoms for 72 hours without medication to be allowed to return to the project.
