OSHA 10 and OSHA 30

OSHA 10-hour and OSHA 30-hour construction outreach training, run at the Exchange's Syracuse office and included with membership rather than billed per seat.

Call the office for the current schedule — classes fill, and the seats go to member firms first.

Supervisor training

For the people who have just been handed a crew and a schedule.

A supervisor training programme for foremen and superintendents moving from running tools to running people.

Sexual harassment prevention

The New York State mandated annual training, delivered for construction workplaces.

New York State requires every employer to provide annual sexual harassment prevention training. The association runs it for member firms, in a form written for a construction workplace rather than an office.

Safety advisor and toolbox talks

The short, repeatable talks a foreman gives at the start of a shift.

BIE safety advisor materials and toolbox talks, available to member firms to run their own site safety programme, alongside the Lovell safety handbook.

Construction law seminars

Sheats & Bailey, PLLC

Lien rights, contracts, delay claims and payment — from lawyers who practise it.

A standing series of construction law sessions and videos for member firms, covering the contract and payment questions that cost contractors the most money.

These are educational sessions and not legal advice about your situation. For that, talk to a construction attorney about your actual contract.

Safety is also the cheapest insurance there is.

The training on this page and the workers’ compensation safety group are the same argument seen from two ends. A firm that trains has fewer losses, and a firm with fewer losses pays less.
