What is SST?

“SST” is site safety training required by NYC Local Law 196 of 2017 for construction workers in New York City. Both construction and demolition workers are required to take the training program and obtain their SST card to enter any NYC construction/job site.

Working in Construction Industry

It's perilous to work in the construction industry. Construction has one of the highest mortality rates for worker deaths and consistently has the most worker deaths overall each year across all industries. The safety of workers should be of utmost importance to every organization. The company should take all the measures to safeguard employees and make sure that all the workers have undergone sufficient New York City Site safety training.

There are many hazards attached to construction work. Since every job site is unique it comes with its own set of hazards and challenges, workers need to always be vigilant about any lurking safety hazards. Conditions on a construction site are continuously changing, unlike in a controlled setting like a factory or an office. As construction progresses, new safety concerns arise, new workers of subcontractors come and go after finishing certain trades.
