SMART and SMACNA Working Together to Help Hospitals
Partnership has helped hospitals to purify air, improve ventilation, and more
ROCKY HILL, Conn. — Since the first case of 2019-nCoV infection was reported in the United States on January 20, 2020, the Sheet Metal Air, Rail and Transportation Workers (SMART) and Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors' National Association (SMACNA) have been working together to help hospitals to purify the air, improve ventilation, manage airflows, provide testing and data analysis, and keep healthcare clients updated as new information comes to light.
Dave Roche, business manager at SMART Local 40 in Connecticut, has been part of the State Governor's task force to reopen Connecticut. He is the only labor person from any industry on this advisory council.
