What New York Safety and Training does

New York Safety and Training (NYST) is a privately held occupational safety training provider founded in 2014 and headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, with additional training facilities in Manhattan and the Bronx. The company delivers a regulated curriculum portfolio spanning four credentialing regimes: NYC Department of Buildings Site Safety Training (SST) cards under Local Law 196; FDNY Certificate of Fitness preparation (S-56, F-01/F-02/F-03/F-60, S-12, S-13/S-14, Active Shooter/Medical Emergency Preparedness); OSHA Authorized Outreach Training (OSHA 10 and 30 for Construction and General Industry); and American Red Cross First Aid/CPR/AED certifications. It also offers NYC DOB scaffold and rigging certifications, Hazwoper, confined space, fall protection, mast climber, and silica awareness courses, plus fire-safety planning services (Level 1 evacuation plans, Level 2 emergency preparedness plans, emergency drills, staff training) and on-site corporate tutoring.

The underlying technology is a web-based course registration platform supporting self-serve enrollment, with delivery conducted across three physical classrooms plus synchronous virtual and hybrid (Zoom plus in-person) formats. Instruction is delivered by retired FDNY firefighters and OSHA authorized outreach trainers, with course materials offered in English and Spanish. The company holds IACET accreditation, signaling compliance with industry CEU/TU standards.

Revenue is generated primarily through individual per-seat course fees ranging from $65 (2-hour Drug & Alcohol Awareness) to $650 (40-hour Site Safety Manager), with a secondary stream from group and corporate on-site training priced at tiered discounts of 10–20% for groups of 4+ and $300–$800 per on-site tutoring engagement. The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer through the company website, supplemented by SEO and organic social channels, with no named enterprise customers or institutional sales pipeline indicated in the source data. Customer segments are horizontal and fragmented across NYC construction workers, site safety professionals, fire safety personnel, and specialized trade workers seeking compliance certification.
