The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) offers State Grants under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977. This program aims to assist states in developing and enforcing mining laws, improving workers’ compensation and occupational disease programs, and enhancing mine safety and health through Federal-State cooperation. MSHA prioritizes State training programs focused on small mining operations and educating miners on their statutory rights, including the right to a safe environment and to refuse unsafe tasks. Additionally, recipients are encouraged to provide training on occupational health hazards (e.g., black lung, silicosis), mine emergency evacuation drills, and mine rescue team training.
