Hazard Communication

Hazard Communication 2012: GHS Training

Hazard Communication 2012 covers training required by OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard (HCS), recently updated to reflect guidelines from the United Nation’s Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling (GHS). The HCS requires that hazardous materials used at the work site are identified, labeled, handled, used, and disposed of properly. The instruction is intended to help prevent or minimize employee exposures to harmful materials and minimize accidental releases of the material to the work environment. Additionally, special attention is paid to new Safety Data Sheet and Labeling requirements. Primary Regs: OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1200, Hazard Communication.
