The Supervisor SST Card is a 62-hour certification required under Local Law 196 for construction supervisors, Site Safety Coordinators, and Site Safety Managers on qualifying NYC job sites. It is separate from the standard 40-hour Worker SST Card.

Any individual acting in a supervisory role on a qualifying NYC construction site — including foremen, general foremen, construction superintendents, site safety coordinators, and site safety managers — is required to hold a valid Supervisor SST Card.

The Supervisor SST Card requires 62 hours of training, compared to the 40-hour Worker SST Card. The additional hours cover supervisory-level safety management, emergency action planning, and site coordination responsibilities.

The Supervisor SST Card must be renewed every 5 years by completing a 16-hour Supervisor SST Refresher course. Fast Track TLG offers both in-person and online renewal options.

Yes. Fast Track TLG offers bilingual Supervisor SST training in English and Spanish. Our bilingual instructors have real NYC job-site supervisory experience.

A Site Safety Coordinator (SSC) manages safety on sites with a Construction Superintendent. A Site Safety Manager (SSM) is required on larger, higher-risk projects and carries greater responsibilities under NYC Building Code. Both roles require the 62-hour Supervisor SST Card.

Yes! Every new Fast Track TLG student receives our Welcome Package on their first day of training — a branded bag, hat, pen, and safety jacket.

We are located in Bushwick, Brooklyn — near Liberty Park, Ridgewood, and Bed-Stuy. Take the L or M train to the Myrtle-Wyckoff Avs stop.
