Learn About Worker WalletNYC Site Safety Training for Local Law 196 Compliance
Local Law 196 created Site Safety Training requirements for many construction and demolition workers and supervisors on NYC jobsites that require a Construction Superintendent, Site Safety Coordinator, or Site Safety Manager. For many workers, this means completing the required combination of OSHA and DOB-approved SST courses to obtain or renew an SST card.
Requirements can vary depending on your current training history, jobsite role, and whether you are a worker or supervisor. Tribune Training Academy can help you understand whether you need worker SST training, supervisor SST training, SST renewal, scaffold training, Worker Wallet support, or another DOB-approved course.

Worker Wallet Card for NYC Construction Workers
The NYC DOB Worker Wallet card is used as proof of qualifications for eligible worker certification categories. Registered Course Providers issue Worker Wallet cards through the DOB Training Connect platform after a student completes eligible worker certification courses.
The Worker Wallet helps workers keep multiple qualifications in one wallet, including supported scaffold, suspended scaffold, rigging worker, rigging supervisor, mast climber, tower crane rigger, periodic gas piping inspector, and related DOB worker certifications. The Worker Wallet does not replace the Site Safety Training card.
What It Helps With
Keeping eligible DOB worker certification cards organized in one Worker Wallet credential.
Who May Need It
Workers completing eligible scaffold, rigging, mast climber, tower crane rigger, or gas piping courses.
Important Note
The Worker Wallet does not replace the SST card. Some workers may need both depending on jobsite role.
