Homeland Safety is an approved training school by the NYC department of buildings (NYC DOB).  We are also authorized to conduct Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) training.

Safety training is required by regulation and is a smart investment for employers who want to minimize injuries. On-the-job accidents result in lost time, employee dissatisfaction, high workers compensation premiums and possible fines imposed by OSHA or local authorities.  These training classes are designed to promote safety and health in the workplace using local and national compliance standards.

What OSHA does:

OSHA, a division of the US Department of Labor is a regulatory agency. OSHA periodically develops and updates its compliance standards to provide employees a safe work environment. OSHA levies fines in cases of non-compliance and workplace accidents resulting in injuries or death, which also often result in litigation.

Homeland Safety offers a broad range of OSHA training courses for general industries and construction.

Please contact us if the class that you are interested in is not listed.

In addition, participants will be able to perform the following specific tasks correctly: 1) inspection of an air-purifying respirator; 2) donning and doffing an air-purifying respirator; and 3) respirator user seal check. The audience for this course is Disaster Site Workers who provide skilled support services (e.g. utility, demolition, debris removal, or heavy equipment operation) or site clean-up services in response to a disaster.
