The OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (HCS or HazCom) requires that employees who work with potentially hazardous chemicals receive information about how to use these substances safely. This includes knowing how to read and understand the newly revised Globally Harmonized System (GHS) labels and 16-section Safety Data Sheets.

As the GHS format is implemented, hazardous materials arriving at your warehouse or work site will appear with these new, strictly defined labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDSs). Your workforce needs to be prepared for this new way of presenting information that helps them recognize dangers and work safely.

HazMat What You Need to Know Program Highlights:

• Chemical types and methods of exposure
