Which New York Workers Need OSHA 10-Hour Construction Training?
Many New York employers in construction, building development and other related fields require workers to take OSHA Outreach training. This training ensures workers are prepared to identify and avoid potential hazards in the workplace.
Earning an OSHA 10 Construction card can also help you meet New York City Site Safety Training (SST) standards required by Local Law 196. This course is part of the NYC Department of Buildings SST path for new construction workers who work at jobsites that require an SST Worker card.
Can This Course Be Applied to OSHA 10 Certification for Construction Workers?
This is an Outreach Training course offered in partnership with the University of South Florida, an OSHA-authorized training provider. Students who complete this course will receive a government-issued OSHA 10 training card from the U.S. Department of Labor.
While DOL-issued cards are sometimes called OSHA 10 certification, the term is not correct. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration does not certify workers or approve training courses. There is no such thing as OSHA certification.
