SAFETY PLANS AND PROGRAMS
Being knowledgeable about safety codes and regulations is a serious matter in construction. Building owners, developers, GCs, and subs all need to be aware of the city, state, and federal requirements for their projects. This includes the filing of site safety plans, fire safety plans, and other site or task-related plans.
NextWave Safety can prepare and file required plans with the NYC Department of Buildings. Plans must be filed and approved by the DOB prior to permits being issued.
Key plans are:
- Site Safety Plans
- Health and Safety Plans
- Noise & Dust Mitigation Plans
- Environmental Protection Plans
- Excavation Plans
- Logistics Plans
- Tenant Protection Plans
- Building Contingency Plans
- Emergency Action Plans
- Accident and Loss Prevention Programs
We can also provide safety training programs as part of any overall plan. These include classroom training, online training, toolbox talks, and even virtual reality training modules.

Equipment Inspection Protocols
A safety consultant in New York regularly inspects equipment ensuring it meets protocol and secures construction sites to protect equipment and the public when workers are not present.
Insurance Requirement Tracking & Compliance
Establishing proper insurance requirements and obtaining certificated of insurance that outline your compliance with these requirements are important to occupational risk mitigation. They can reduce your chance of unknowingly accepting liability from the actions of others.
Corporate Safety Training Programs
We ensure employees are trained as necessary to adhere to the guidelines of your specific safety plans and programs, including everything from OSHA courses to CPR, first aid, fire safety, emergency response, disaster readiness, and other rescue techniques.
OCIP/CCIP CONSULTATION
We provide skilled guidance for the development and implementation of an Owner Controlled Insurance Program (OCIP) or Contractor Controlled Insurance Program (CCIP).
Assistance in these “wrap-ups”, such as help with costs, coverage terms, and conditions, claims processes, loss prevention, and more. A safety consultant in New York provides advice on these policies in which all participants involved in the building project are covered by a single policy.
