As of September 2026: Enforcing Local Law 196; invalidated Redcode cards

New York City's Department of Buildings has deactivated about 2,000 construction safety cards issued by Redcode, a training company with locations in Brooklyn and Queens. The move follows a grand jury indictment alleging the firm sold the cards for $500 each to undercover investigators who never attended the required classes.
