Hopefully their start up procedures call for all personnel to clear out of the unit.


Likely the opposite. There’s a lot of field surveillance when starting up any unit.

Most if not all the contractors won't be in unit. Only essential personnel, which are plant operators. Plants don't want any more than necessary while bringing unit up, for this reason.
That's what I've seen in over 30 years experience as a contractor.
