NYC DOB Codes

In NYC, it seems that everywhere you look there is a building under construction. To regulate the construction and demolition of buildings, the NYC Department of Buildings has set forth codes that must be followed to promote safety on the jobsite. The latest NYC Construction codes set forth the standards for construction sites.

Chapter 33 of the NYC building code sets the standards for safety during construction or demolition projects. Included in this code are regulations that promote safety of workers and the general public during construction projects. Some of the standards include:

  • Requirements for site safety managers and coordinators
  • Necessary safeguards and safety measures
  • Inspection criteria for structures, operations, and equipment
  • Required documentation
  • Protections for pedestrians and adjoining buildings

The team of professionals at Succor Safety knows the codes and standards put forth by the NYC DOB. We can help you by providing safety professionals for your jobsite that will monitor compliance. We can also help you draft a site safety plan for your jobsite that will comply with NYC DOB regulations.

OSHA Standards

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration sets the standards for health and safety on the job across many industries, including construction. Understanding OSHA regulations will help you avoid fines for noncompliance and create a safer workplace. OSHA standard 1926, Safety and Health Regulations for Construction, sets safety standards for the construction industry. These regulations include:

  • Fall Protection requirements
  • Crane & Derrick Safety regulations
  • Safety training and education
  • Personal Protective Equipment
  • Fire Prevention Measures
  • Scaffolding safety requirements
