New OSHA grants for workplace safety & health training now available.

To be eligible for these grants, applicants must develop training that focuses on three program emphasis areas:

  • Identifying and preventing workplace-related infectious diseases, including the coronavirus, in industries with high illness rates, those employing frontline workers or those serving susceptible populations.
  • OSHA standards that address infectious diseases, including coronavirus.
  • Workplace hazards identified in OSHA special emphasis programs or other priorities associated with infectious diseases, including the coronavirus.

Grant applications must be submitted to OSHA at www.grants.gov by 11:59 EDT on July 26, 2021
