Good afternoon everyone,
FY27 SafetyWorks Training Grant applications are now open until July 3, 2026, providing eligible Massachusetts employers with up to $25,000 to support hands-on safety training programs focused on injury prevention, workplace violence prevention, emergency response, fall protection, equipment operation, and other critical safety topics. Investing in workplace safety is more than compliance—it strengthens organizations, supports employees, and helps ensure that every worker returns home safely at the end of the day. Grant awards are determined based on available funding and subject to review and approval by the Department of Industrial Accidents – Office of Safety.
Please note that State Agencies including Higher Education, Police Departments, and Fire Departments are not eligible employers for the SafetyWorks Training Grant.
Applications can be found here:
