Professional Bio

Steven St. Laurent’s specialty is safety training that doesn’t bore you to death in English and Spanish. He also is the creator of OSHAFLIX: Videos to help with every safety meeting. Finally his company provides free online safety forms that eliminate clutter and scanning as well as help small and medium-size companies create proper documentation without being overwhelmed with paper.

Steve’s training career was born when he conducted his first classes (in Spanish) for a cement company across Northern Mexico in the first half of 2002. Since then he has conducted 100s of safety trainings for 1000s of people in construction and manufacturing companies in over 30 states across the U.S. and 2 states in Mexico, often for companies who have experienced a fatality.

Steve is a Mechanical Engineer who worked in the field as an Energy Engineer for 3 international companies on design-build projects before becoming a Safety Trainer/Consultant. That work experience brought him to Mexico for 1 year, Sicily for 3 weeks, and Albuquerque for 7 months. He spent the rest of his time as a Field Engineer working in New England on projects such as power plant and other energy-system upgrades at navy bases, college campuses, hospitals and other industrial facilities. Steve polished his Spanish over a total of 2 years living in Mexico.

Steve currently resides in central Massachusetts with his beautiful bride and their 3 children. He considers it an honor and a privilege to facilitate safety training as it is his passion.

Finally, Steve also presents as a Keynote and Motivational Speaker for safety conferences, corporate meetings, roundtables and other events on topics such as “How to Deliver Dynamic Toolbox Talks and Safety Training”, “Cracking the OSHA Nut”, “Safety Supervision and Leadership”, “How to have a clue regarding Cultural differences (Spanish/English)”, among other topics.

If you wish to talk to more professional references of mine, I will make them available to you. I have developed relationships with a trusted group of safety professionals that I refer to as my partner trainers. Without them I would not be in business today nor have the experience I have garnered through their gracious mentorship of me. The background and training experience of my partner trainers is extensive & international, with 1000’s of Safety Trainings under their belt. My specialties and expertise are found on my home page and include OSHA 10s and 30s in Construction and Industry, First Aid/CPR/AED, Confined Space, Lockout, Forklifts, among other topics. But of course I cannot provide all training you might need. Thus, I am plugged into a strong network of safety professionals, and I can help you identify trainers for a variety of customized trainings in English, Spanish and Portuguese on specific OSHA topics such as fall protection, Aerial/Scissor lifts, Respirators, HAZCOM, HAZWOPER 40-hr and much more.
