Applications open for FY22 Workplace Safety Training grants

The Department of Industrial Accidents’ Office of Safety is accepting applications through Dec. 31 for the fiscal 2022 Workplace Safety Training grant program.

The program awards funds to eligible applicants who submit responses designed to provide and improve safety education and training in occupational safety and health to employers and employees within the Commonwealth covered by the Massachusetts workers’ compensation law (Ch. 152).

Organizations are encouraged to apply as soon as possible to have the maximum opportunity for funding. If the number of qualified applicants exceeds funding availability, subsequent applications will continue to be accepted and evaluated. Those that qualify will be placed on a waiting list should funding become available.

The grant application and contractual documents, available online, are writable PDF files. When applying, include the name of your organization in the subject line of the email.

The original grant application and all supporting documents as outlined in the safety grant check off summary must be typed and emailed as one document to safety.grant@mass.gov. Multiple attachments and zip files will not be accepted.

Those with questions or requests for assistance with the grant application only should contact Deven Awalt or Maria Pesantes at deven.awalt@mass.gov or maria.pesantes@mass.gov.
