Pursue OSHA Grants for Workplace Safety Training

The U.S. Department of Labor announced $12.7 million in Susan Harwood Training Grants administered by OSHA. These funds support instructor-led training for workers and employers in small businesses, focusing on industries with high injury, illness, and fatality rates. The grants target hazard awareness, avoidance, and controls while informing employers of their responsibilities under the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Eligible applicants include nonprofits, employer associations, labor unions, Indian tribes, and certain educational institutions. Small employers, office managers, HR generalists, and business owners with employees or contractors can benefit indirectly by accessing the resulting training programs. Participation helps reduce workplace incidents, strengthens compliance documentation, and improves overall job quality without requiring direct grant applications from employers. The deadline for provider applications is July 31, 2026. Employers should monitor funded programs through OSHA channels and prepare internal workflows to integrate new training. This includes updating safety policies, scheduling employee sessions, and maintaining records of participation. Taking these steps positions small organizations to leverage free or low-cost resources that directly address high-risk hazards and support regulatory adherence Includes: - One-page action brief PDF - Practical implementation steps - Employer Action Checklist - Source release date and official source reference Vertical: Workplace / HR Category tags: hr, workplace, employer, policy, documentation Source: DOL - News Releases - US Department of Labor announces nearly $13M available in funding for worker safety, health training grants Source released: July 1, 2026 Official source: http://www.dol.gov/newsroom/releases/osha/osha20260701 Curated from official government sources.
