GATF Receives Training Grant

PITTSBURGH—The Graphic Arts Technical Foundation (GATF) was recently awarded a Susan Harwood Training Grant from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to develop an ergonomics training program for the printing industry. The goal of the program is to provide printers with specific guidelines on how to recognize, prevent and significantly reduce ergonomic hazards. Under the grant, GATF will conduct a train-the-trainer program, after which these trainers will conduct seminars, workshops and on-site training programs.
