No person may operate a small unmanned aircraft over a human being unless that human being is:
(a) Directly participating in the operation of the small unmanned aircraft; or
(b) Located under a covered structure or inside a stationary vehicle that can provide reasonable protection from a falling small unmanned aircraft.
My question is this: I've been hired by a construction company to capture the pouring of a concrete slab. There will undoubtedly be employees of the construction company doing their assigned tasks around the area directly under my drone. Are these workers considered "Directly participating in the operation of the small unmanned aircraft" and thereby exempt from 14 CFR 107.39 ???
