OSHA-approved state plans are funded with both state and federal monies. This page is designed to assist John Q. Taxpayer in understanding how money is spent on the KYOSH program — from where the money comes and to where it goes.
The 23(g) Grant
The United States OSH Act of 1970 (full text) established the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as the agency to oversee the protection of America's workforce.
In Section 23 of the OSH Act, authorization was given by Congress to OSHA for the giving of "Grants to the States" who operate their own state OSH agencies. The continual authorization for giving grants "to assist them in administering and enforcing" their OSH programs is located in subsection (g) of that same section. The shorthand reference to this type of grant is simply "23(g) grant."
One of the key words of import within section 23 is enforcement. Except for a handful of state programs, the 23(g) grant is to be appropriated for enforcement/compliance activities.
