Grants to help keep workers safe on the job 

Through the Susan Harwood Training Grant Program, OSHA awards funds to nonprofit organizations to train and educate employers and workers on recognizing, avoiding, and preventing safety and health hazards in their workplaces, and to inform workers of their rights and employers of their responsibilities under the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Target trainees include workers and employers in small businesses and high-hazard industries, including those most likely to be subjected to safety and health violations, as well as underserved workers who may be hard-to-reach, have limited English proficiency, or are temporary workers.
