THE PROGRAM AREAS OF EMPHASIS ARE:
Training for disadvantaged, underserved, low-income, or other hard-to-reach, at-risk workers and
employers.
Training that focuses on identifying and preventing occupational safety and health hazards in high hazard industries.
Training on new OSHA standards.
Training on workplace hazards identified in the DOL Strategic Plan, OSHA special emphasis program, or other OSHA priorities (www.osha.gov).
