Occupational Safety and Health Administration

Federal regulators keep workplaces in New York City safe and compliant. The agency sets standards and enforces them—everything from fire safety and emergency response plans to hazard communication and recordkeeping—targeting workplaces where risks can escalate if unchecked. They also investigate employee complaints, conduct inspections, and provide training on safe practices to help businesses stay ahead of potential threats. No matter the industry, the guidelines aim to reduce injuries, illnesses, and accidents before they occur. Park your paperwork at 201 Varick St if you need details or support. Call (212) 337-2378 and ask for help navigating regulations or requesting assistance—directions to the office are available here.
