Training and Educational Materials Development

Under the authority of Section 21(c) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970(OSH Act), the U. S. Department of Labor (DOL) Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) established its discretionary grant program in 197 8. In 1997, OSHA renamed the program in honor of the late Susan

Harwood, former director of the OSHA Office of Risk Assessment.

The grant program offers opportunities for nonprofit organizations to compete annually for funding so they may develop and conduct training and educational programs for small business employers and workers on the recognition, avoidance, and prevention of occupational safety and health hazards in their workplaces, and to inform workers of their rights and employers of their responsibilities under the OSH Act.The Susan Harwood Grant Program awards funds to qualifying organizations who have demonstrated capabilities to achieve the program’s performance expectations outlined in this FOA.

This includes experience in employing subject matter experts, delivering and administering adult training programs, recruiting students, and managing grants.

Following the grant awards, OSHA monitors each organization’s progress in achieving their performance goals and training targets.

OSHA accomplishes this by conducting orientation meetings, training material reviews, training observations, program and financial monitoring visits, and quarterly and year-end report reviews.For FY 2020, OSHA announces the availability of approximately $1 1. 5 million to fund new Susan Harwood Training Program grants.

Susan Harwood Training Program grants are subject to the availability of federal funding and appropriations.

OSHA expects to award multiple grants to eligible nonprofit organizations under this competitive Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA).

Program funding is for a 12-month period beginning no later than September 30, 2020, and ending on September 30, 202 1. The maximum award for a Training and Educational Materials Development grant is $75,00 0.
