The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands Department of Labor, operating through its CNMI OSHA On-Site Consultation Program Division, is a U.S. local government entity registered with SAM.gov since November 14, 2022. This division specializes in delivering occupational safety and health consultation services designed to improve workplace safety conditions across the Northern Mariana Islands. The entity functions as a prime recipient of federal grant funding from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), focusing its efforts on supporting small to medium-sized employers operating in high-hazard industries through targeted consultative services.

The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands Department of Labor has received three consecutive federal grant awards from OSHA spanning fiscal years 2023 through 2026, demonstrating sustained federal confidence in its consultation program operations.
