WNYCOSH, the Western New York Council on Occupational Safety and Health, provides educational and technical assistance to workers on occupational safety and health concerns.

We are a nonprofit, membership organization established in 1978 by labor unions, labor educators, and health professionals. We continue today as a fully staffed organization with a membership of over eighty union locals, and individuals and volunteers.

Our purpose is to help reduce and prevent injury and illness caused by unsafe exposure to toxic substances and other workplace hazards.

WNYCOSH provides access to safety trainers and experts in toxicology, industrial hygiene, epidemiology, and occupational medicine through the Workers’ Occupational Health Consortium.
