Why should you take this How to Implement OSHA’s Globally Harmonized Hazard Communication Standard (GHS) Webinar?
OSHA has finalized changes in the Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) to align the standard with the United Nation’s Globally Harmonized System (GHS) for the classification and labeling of hazardous chemicals. This means that virtually every chemical label, Safety Data Sheet (SDS), and written hazard communication plan must be revised to meet the new standard.
Worker training must be updated so that workers can recognize and understand the symbols and pictograms on the new labels, as well as the new hazard statements and precautions on SDSs. Learn how to comply with the new requirements of OSHA's new Hazard Communication Standard at this live, interactive How to Implement OSHA’s Globally Harmonized Hazard Communication Standard (GHS) Webinar.
