In your circumstance, the only gigs that would seem to be clearly or mostly safe are gigs where you're working on a home or office that's not yet occupied. You do have to worry about the other workers, but around here, where home construction seems to still be ongoing, I've seen all the workers wearing masks.
The contractor I work with most often just sent out an email to all of his subs that they would only be allowing a single trade/company on a job site at a time with 4 people max, and his two project managers will be scheduling subs and nobody is allowed to be on site unannounced. I'm happy to see the precaution.
It's those new homes I'm least concerned about. I'm working up in the ceiling joists most of the time, and I'm rarely touching any surfaces that other people have touched.
With offices, I'm mostly worried about the other trade people who have been coming and going. I don't know where they've been.
