The safety card scanned.

The worker was allowed onto the site.

Investigators now allege the required training never happened.

New York City has shut down a construction safety training provider after prosecutors charged the company and two individuals in an alleged scheme involving OSHA and Site Safety Training cards issued without the required instruction.

DOB says roughly 2,000 active SST cards are affected.

Workers have through December 7, 2026 to complete replacement training.

But the bigger story is not the card.

It is what happens when a credential says "trained" and the worker may never have received the education behind it.

Our new Workplace Wednesday article breaks down:

- the RedCode allegations
- OSHA 10/30 vs NYC SST
- what affected workers need to do
- what employers should verify
- how to check trainers and SST cards
- New York's 2026 SST changes
- and whether LSE should eventually add NYC SST training

A safe crib is supposed to look boring.

Flat. Firm. Clear. Separate.

CDC just published a 𝗱𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝗶𝘀 of 4,861 sudden unexpected infant deaths from 2020 through 2024.

Unsafe sleep factors were identified in at least 73% of cases. The factors overlapped, and that does 𝗻𝗼𝘁 mean the sleep environment was proven to cause every death.

What the data does show is how often familiar risks were present:

- 46% were found in a nonsupine position
- 75% were on a sleep surface other than a crib, portable crib, or bassinet
- 78% had soft bedding present
- 59% were sharing a sleep surface

Our Safety Saturday article explains the findings without blaming families and focuses on what parents, grandparents, babysitters, and childcare providers can actually do.

If the process keeps generating uncontrolled respirable dust, handing out respirators does not fix the system.

A label on a drum is not useful if the worker cannot turn it into a safe decision.

Hazard Communication is supposed to do more than put an SDS in a binder. Workers need to know what the pictograms mean, where the real exposure risk is, what PPE is required, what to do when something spills, and when to stop work and get help.

Our latest HazCom guide focuses on the part that matters in the field: turning information into action.

Construction knows how to talk about falls, silica, electricity, trenches, and heavy equipment.

The harder hazard may be the one nobody wants to talk about.

Construction workers carry a serious su***de burden, and supervisors are often the people who first notice that a coworker is not acting like themselves.

You do not need to diagnose someone.

You do need to know how to notice, ask, listen, connect them with help, and act when the danger feels immediate.

Our Workplace Wednesday article focuses on what supervisors can actually do.

A new 2026 systematic review compared volume-controlled mechanical ventilation with manual ventilation during CPR. The randomized evidence was small, and the pooled analysis did 𝗻𝗼𝘁 show a statistically significant ROSC advantage.

That does not make mechanical ventilation useless. It means the real question is whether your system can deliver controlled ventilation without sacrificing airway management, capnography, compression quality, or team performance.

𝗗𝗼 𝘄𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗲𝘇𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗴 𝗱𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗰 𝗮𝗿𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘁?

It sounds like a simple question.

It isn’t.

Continuous-flow insufflation of oxygen (CFIO) has been proposed as a way to deliver oxygen during CPR without depending entirely on repetitive manual bag ventilation.

New 2026 observational evidence gives us an important reason to be cautious.

In adult out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, CFIO was associated with 𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗱𝗱𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗿𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 at 30 days compared with bag-valve-mask ventilation.

Does that prove CFIO caused worse outcomes?

𝗡𝗼.

This was observational research.

But it does mean we should not assume that continuous oxygen flow is automatically equivalent to effective ventilation.

That is the bigger lesson.

𝗢𝘅𝘆𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴.

Current AHA guidance continues to emphasize effective breaths, visible chest rise, avoidance of both hypo- and hyperventilation, high-quality compressions and deliberate airway management.

And after ROSC, the oxygen strategy changes again.

Our newest Life Saving Education evidence review breaks down CFIO, BVM ventilation, compression fraction, capnography, advanced airways, hyperventilation, ROSC and what this 2026 study actually means for EMS.

Because the goal isn’t to move oxygen through equipment.

I have worked enough hot days in protective gear to know this: the hazard you are dressed to survive can create another hazard of its own.

𝗛𝗔𝗭𝗪𝗢𝗣𝗘𝗥 𝗣𝗣𝗘 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.

Chemical protective clothing, respirators, gloves, boots, physical exertion, humidity, and direct sun can all add to heat strain. OSHA's HAZWOPER guidance specifically tells employers to consider heat stress and task duration when selecting and using PPE.

One important 2026 clarification: OSHA's nationwide heat-specific rule is still proposed, not final. But heat is not a free pass. OSHA's General Duty Clause still applies to recognized serious heat hazards, the agency revised its Heat National Emphasis Program in April, and existing HAZWOPER duties require employers to assess hazards and use appropriate controls.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗼𝘁-𝘄𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗛𝗔𝗭𝗪𝗢𝗣𝗘𝗥 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲:
• PPE selected for the actual hazard, not automatic over-protection
• Acclimatization for new and returning workers
• Water and cooling in a clean, usable location
• Work-rest cycles that change with conditions and PPE burden
• Buddy observation and clear stop-work authority
• A plan for decon and EMS access if a worker becomes ill

The goal is not to choose between chemical protection and heat protection. The goal is to plan for both.

I have pulled a training binder during a walk-through and watched a safety manager's face change when I asked one question.

Not "did they take the course." 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗶𝘁.

A sign-in sheet proves someone was in the room. It does not prove competency, and that gap is exactly where citations happen.

𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗹𝘆.

PPE training (1910.132) requires written certification that includes the employee, the date, and the subject, not just a roster.

Powered industrial truck (forklift) training requires certification that both the training and a practical evaluation of that specific operator were completed. A finished module is not an evaluation.

HAZWOPER (1910.120) requires a statement of training or competency kept on file, and documentation that training happened before the employee was assigned to the work.

Process Safety Management (1910.119) is the clearest of all. Inspectors look for three things: who was trained, when, and the means used to verify they understood it. A test score or a practical demonstration. Attendance alone fails that third element every time.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗮𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲. Training is the first half. Proof of understanding is the second half. Employers who only keep the first half find that out during an incident investigation, not before.

If your folder only has sign-in sheets, you do not have a training program. You have an attendance record.

We put together a full breakdown of what OSHA actually wants to see, what counts as proof of competency, and where employers get caught short.
