Temporary SST Card for NYC – What Is It And How To Get One

A temporary SST card is a way for new entrants into the New York City construction workforce to start working as quickly and safely as possible. The New York City Department of Buildings (NYC DOB) requires that anyone starting work on a construction or demolition site after 1 December 2019 completes OSHA 10 (at a minimum) for the construction industry and obtains a Temporary Site Safety Training (SST) card as a proof of minimum Site Safety Training before starting work on a construction site. If you already have an OSHA 30 card issued within the last five years you are also eligible to receive the Temporary SST card.

Temporary SST Card for NYC – I received one. What happens next?

A temporary SST card is valid for six months and cannot be extended or renewed. Once you obtain your Temporary SST card, you have six months to complete additional 30 hours of SST courses and obtain the Site Safety or Worker SST card. The Site Safety SST card requires 40 credits of training so, the additional 30 hours of SST training (together with the OSHA 10 taken to obtain the Temporary SST card) satisfies the 40 hour safety training requirement. The Site Safety Card is valid for 5 years.

I Already Have An OSHA 10 Card, Can I Get A Temporary SST Card?

Yes, provided your OSHA 10 card has been issued within the past five years and can be verified with the issuing OSHA Training Institute. The same applies if you have an OSHA 30 card.

I Have Not Received My OSHA 10 Card Yet, Can I Get My Temporary SST Card?

Yes, but only if you apply for your Temporary SST card through the same course provider where you have taken your OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 training.

When you complete your OSHA training you should get a Certificate of Completion as proof that you have completed your training, until your official OSHA card arrives. OSHA cards typically arrive in the mail within 3 to 4 weeks but can take up to 90 days, the maximum time allowed by OSHA for your course provider or instructor to mail you your card.

The New York City Department of Buildings allows approved course providers to issue SST cards (including Temporary SST cards) based on Certificates of Completion only in case the trainee has completed the OSHA course through the same course provider as the one issuing the SST card. This is to ensure that the course provider will receive a copy of the OSHA card that they need to upload to the DOB Training Connect platform through which all SST cards are issued. So, if you have completed your OSHA 10 course with a provider and you only have the Certificate of Completion (you are yet to receive your OSHA card), only that course provider can issue your Temporary SST card. The same applies when it comes to the Site Safety SST card that you will become eligible to apply for once you obtain 40 hours of prescribed Site Safety Training.

Can I take the OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 training courses online?

Yes, provided they are taken through one of the online course providers approved by OSHA. In addition, for OSHA online courses to be accepted in New York, they need to be “actively proctored”. PDH STAR offers actively proctored and OSHA-approved OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 online courses through PureSafety. The OSHA 10 and OSHA 30 online training for the construction industry is available in English and Spanish.

Is OSHA 10 Card A Mandatory Requirement In New York?

OSHA 10 Card for New York State

In New York State, workers on all publicly funded projects over $250,000 are required to have an OSHA 10 DOL card. The OSHA 10 Legislation applies to workers on a public work contract that is required under Article 8 to receive the prevailing wage. New York State does not require a renewal of OSHA 10 training, but your employer may ask you to renew your OSHA 10 card every 3 to 5 years.

Article 8 §220-h, requires that every worker working on a public project under Article 8 of $250,000 or more, must be certified as having completed an OSHA 10 training. They must complete the OSHA 10 training before performing any work under the contract. This provision applies to all contractors and subcontractors, and they must submit proof (OSHA card, Certificate of Completion, or training roster from the certified OSHA trainer) of OSHA 10 completion to the first certified payroll submitted to the contracting agency. An attestation by the employer that employees have completed OSHA 10 course is not sufficient.

Other states such as Connecticut, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island have similar requirements for training and certification.

OSHA 10 Card for New York City

In New York City your OSHA 10 card must be renewed every 5 years. The NYC Department of Buildings has also introduced the Site Safety Training (SST) card, requiring all workers on demolition and construction sites that require a Site Safety Manager, Site Safety Coordinator, or Construction Superintendent, to have a minimum of 40 hours of Site Safety Training (SST). This training typically consists of OSHA 30 for Construction and 10 hours of SST training: 2-Hour Drug and Alcohol Awareness and 8-Hour Fall Prevention courses. Supervisors or Competent Persons on these sites must complete 62 hours of Site Safety Training, typically consisting of OSHA 30 and 32 hours of SST courses.

You can also use your OSHA 10 card to obtain a Temporary SST card which will allow you to work in New York City for six (6) months. You then have six months to complete additional 30 hours of SST training to be eligible to obtain the Site Safety SST card, valid for five (5) years.

Can I Take OSHA 10 Training Course Online?

Yes, as long as the online training is “actively proctored” and is completed with one of the OSHA-approved online training providers, the training will be accepted in New York. PDH STAR courses (developed by Pure safety) are OSHA-approved and you will receive the official DOL card after completing the training.

Where Can I sign Up For the Approved OSHA 10 Online Training?

You can sign up for the OSHA 10 online training on the PDH STAR website. Please note that you would need to enter your full mailing address where you want your OSHA card to be mailed. You have six (6) months to complete the training once you start, and you can complete a maximum of 7.5 hours per day.

How To Get An OSHA Card In NYC

OSHA card in NYC can be obtained in several ways. There are many course providers offering in-person, online on-demand, and online webinar classes that will allow you to obtain either OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 card. OSHA training can be taught only by OSHA-authorized trainers who may teach 10- and 30-hour safety courses and issue OSHA Outreach Training completion cards.

The OSHA 10-hour course covers safety and hazards for entry-level workers. The OSHA 30-hour course covers greater variety of safety topics and is intended for supervisors and workers with some health and safety responsibility.

In New York State, OSHA 10-hour training is required on most publicly funded construction projects. In New York City (NYC) OSHA 10-hour or 30-hour training is required to obtain the Temporary Site Safety Training (SST) card, valid for 6 months. The trainee then has 6 months to complete additional 30 hours of SST training to obtain the Site Safety SST card, valid for 5 years. An SST card is a mandatory requirement on all construction projects in NYC that require Site Safety Manager, Site Safety Coordinator, or Superintendent.

Is OSHA Online Training Acceptable in NYC?

Yes. OSHA online training courses are acceptable in NYC, as long as they are “actively proctored”. Actively proctored simply means that the course provider must ensure the identity of the student taking the online training, and that they shall be monitored at random intervals that they are the individual completing the training. The trainee must also attest that they are the individual who attends the training and that the training is completed without any assistance by others. PDH STAR OSHA online training complies with these requirements and is accepted by NYC Department of Buildings.

How Do I Ensure I Will Get A Genuine OSHA Card?

OSHA carries a list of all OSHA Authorized Outreach Trainers that you can find online. In addition, OSHA has approved a handful of online OSHA course providers – PDH STAR OSHA courses (developed by PureSafety) are one of the approved online OSHA courses. Taking an OSHA online training with PDH STAR ensures that you will get a genuine Department of Labor OSHA Outreach Training card.

How Long Does It Take To Receive An OSHA Card?

OSHA regulations state that the OSHA trainer must deliver the OSHA card to the trainee within 90 days of completing the course. In practice, it usually takes 2-4 weeks to receive your OSHA card in the mail. You must provide a US mailing address to receive your OSHA card.

Do OSHA Cards Expire?

Although OSHA cards do not expire, your employer may ask you to refresh your training periodically, to ensure you are familiar with the hazards on your site. For the purpose of issuing the first SST card to a trainee, the OSHA card cannot be older than 5 years. If your OSHA card is older than 5 years, and you are applying for your first SST card, you must either repeat your OSHA training, or “refresh” your OSHA card by taking additional 8 hours of prescribed SST training.

What OSHA Courses Are Offered By PDH STAR?

PDH STAR offers OSHA 10-hour and OSHA 30-hour online training courses for the Construction and General Industries approved for New York State and NYC. Courses are available in English and Spanish and are fully on demand – you can complete the training in your own pace, and at any time. Our courses are accepted in New York State and by the NYC Department of Buildings.

PDH Online Courses for Professional Engineers

PDH online courses for Professional Engineers are an approved, convenient, cost effective, and safe alternative to fulfill your Continuing Education (CE) requirements for PE license renewal. The number of Professional Development Hours (PDH) required in each renewal cycle varies based on which state issued your license and is a requirement in most states.

Type of PDH Online Courses for Professional Engineers

There are three primary formats of PDH online courses:

On demand courses: an asynchronous process where the licensee receives a document that they review in their own time and come back to do the assessment or quiz. In most states you can fulfill your CE by only completing on demand online courses.

Timed and Monitored courses: specific requirement of the state of Ohio, partial CE must be completed with “Time and Monitored” (T&M) online courses, i.e. the time licensee spends on each part of the course must be monitored to ensure minimum time is spent on each course section. PDH STAR has developed a number of T&M courses to fulfill Ohio specific requirements. Our on-demand as well as live or interactive webinars are also accepted as T&M online courses.

On demand webinars: all states accept on demand webinars, essentially pre-recorded narrated videos. On demand webinars can also be used as “Timed and Monitored” courses to satisfy Ohio licensing requirements. The licensee must pass the assessment at the end of the course.

Live and interactive webinars: accepted by all states, live and interactive PDH online webinars are instructor led sessions that typically do not have an assessment at the end of the webinar. However, presence and participation throughout the webinar is required in order to obtain the Certificate of Completion at the end of the webinar. Some states require that part of your online CE is obtained via webinars where you can have live interaction with the instructor, either via voice, chat, or email. PDH STAR Live Interactive Webinars comply with these requirements. For example, New York State require 18 hours (out of the total of 36 hours) to be completed through courses with live interaction between the instructor and participants.

Approval of PDH Online Courses for Professional Engineers

Some states require preapproval of CE course providers. PDH STAR is approved in all states that require course provider pre-approval. You can complete your training with PDH STAR with a piece of mind knowing that the courses you take are guaranteed to be accepted by your state licensing board.

PDH Online Continuing Education State by State Requirements

Each state has its CE requirements. The license renewal period can vary and is typically either biennial or triennial. The NCEES recommends 15 hours of PDH hours per year for license renewal, but every state is free to set its requirements. PDH STAR has compiled convenient packages for each discipline for each state that is guaranteed to be accepted by your licensing board for full or partial state CE requirements.

In addition, NCEES states that a CE course is “Any qualifying course or activity with a clear purpose and objective which will maintain, improve, or expand the skills and knowledge relevant to the licensee’s field of practice. Regular duties are not considered qualified activities.”

Supervisor Site Safety Training and Construction Safety Supervisor Courses @pdhstar.com

Today, there are training courses on almost any topic, including training specially designed for supervisors in the construction industry. Supervisors in the construction industry are essential to high-quality safety culture. Every supervisor has a legal responsibility to understand their safety responsibilities in the workplace as they act as the agent of the employers and are considered to be the first-line representative of management. The New York City Department of Buildings (NYC DOB) recognized this and has made the Site Safety Supervisor Training mandatory for most construction sites in New York City.

After completion of their training, supervisors should have the fundamental knowledge to understand their safety duties at the workplace. They should be capable of developing the skills and knowledge to fulfill those responsibilities once they complete the required Site Safety Training (SST) courses. This training can also help make them effective safety champions on the construction site. They also receive an understanding on how their responsibilities apply on a construction site. Site Safety Supervisors can complete this training online, through NYC DOB approved Site Safety Training providers. There are many benefits of choosing online training courses and receiving training to work safely in the construction industry.

You can work around your schedule

With online training, you get the freedom to create your own training schedule. You can choose when to do the training, according to your working schedule, as the training is online on-demand. It can be challenging for employers to manage the training of all employees at the same time, as traditional classroom-based training requires facilities, instructors, and time off work for potentially a large number of employees. With online training, supervisors can easily complete their training without compromising their work schedules. They can learn with full control and coordination of their training and work schedules.

Adaptive to a variety of learning styles

Traditional training does not work the same for every employee. There are multiple formats of online courses and employees can adapt according to their learning styles. Online training centers provide training in different formats and use different tools such as online on-demand videos, interactive quizzes, and downloadable materials.

Get more engaged with online learning

When it comes to workplace safety, a clear and focused mind is a must. The topics in Supervisor Site Safety training are developed to help prevent hazardous situations, and provide tools on how to spot and prevent them. In virtual classes, such as webinars, students can easily engage with instructors, group discussions or smaller group break out sessions.

What are the benefits of Supervisor Site Safety Training training?

After the right Site Safety Supervisor Training, supervisors can:

Develop safety and leadership skills, important when working in hazardous environments

Know how to become aware of, and prevent workplace hazards

Stay updated with OSHA and NYC DOB regulations

Supervise other construction workers

Assess safety management systems

Contribute to development and implementation of safety management system of a company

Be able to help construction workers adhere to and comply with safety standards
