As part of its new Healthy People in Healthy Places Equals a Healthy Economy, the U.S. Green Building Council has released four new LEED pilot credits building owners and managers can plug into their operations and maintenance plans to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

The four credits, categorized “Safety First,” offer four strategies to help facilities managers help occupants be safe and green as buildings reopen. They include:

1. Safety First: Re-Enter Your Workplace

2. Safety First: Cleaning and Disinfecting Your Space

3. Safety First: Managing Indoor Quality During COVID-19

4. Safety First: Building Water Recommissioning
