  3. Changes To Hazard Communication Standard • It is more structured requirements for the labeling of chemicals (all label and SDS sheets will be uniform) • Brings the Hazard Communication Standard in line with the United Nations Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) • Requires the information on chemical hazards be conveyed on the labels

  4. Changes to Material Safety Data Sheets • The new term is Safety Data Sheet (SDS) • The change is to have uniform SDS and Labels on the chemicals and their hazards • There are 16 sections to the Safety Data Sheet • All Safety Data Sheets will be uniform starting June 1, 2015 • Some are already in that format and some companies are using the new labels

  5. Safety Data Sheet Sections Section 1, Identification includes product identifier, Manufacturer or distributor name, address, phone number, emergency phone number, recommended use, restrictions on use Section 2, Hazard(s) Identification includes all hazards regarding the chemical Section 3, Composition/Information on ingredients, includes information on chemical ingredients Section 4, First-aid, includes important symptoms/effects, acute, delayed; required treatment

  6. Section 5, Fire Fighting measures, list suitable extinguishing techniques, equipment, chemical hazards from fire • Section 6, Accidental release measures list emergency procedures, protective equipment, proper methods of containment and cleanup • Section 7, Handling and storage lists precautions for safe handling and storage, including what not to store it in • Section 8, Exposure controls/personal protection list OSHA’s Permissible Exposure Limits (PELS), Threshold Limit Values (TLVS), appropriate engineering controls, personal protective equipment (PPE)

  7. Section 9, Physical and chemical properties lists the chemical’s characteristics. Section 10, Stability and reactivity list the chemical stability and possibility of hazardous reactions Section 11, Toxicological information includes routes of exposure, related symptoms, acute and chronc effects, numerical measures of toxicity. Section 12, Ecological Information OSHA will not be enforcing these Section 13, Disposal considerations sections due to other Agencies Section 14, Transport information regulate this information Section 15, Regulatory information Section16, Includes the date of preparation or last revision

  8.

This also must be on the SDS. • Signal word is either danger or warning, with danger being used for the more severe hazards

  9. Pictogram, the pictogram is a shape of a square set on the point( ). It is to include a black hazard symbol on a white background with red around the outside of the square. There are a total of 9 pictograms. Health Hazard Flame Gas Cylinder Exclamation Mark Corrosion Exploding Bomb Flame over Circle Environment Skull & Crossbones

  10. Sample Label

  11. How The Labels and SDS Relate To Each Other • On the label the Product Identifier and Supplier Identification will correspond with Section 1 on the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) • The Hazard Pictograms will correspond with Section 2 on the SDS. • Precautionary Statements on the label need to be read carefully and complied with. There are several sections on the SDS also that may correspond to this area on the label such as Sections 7, 8, 11

  12. In Case of Fire on the label corresponds with Section 5 on the SDS • First Aid corresponds with Section 4 and 11 on SDS • The information on the label will be the same as on the SDS such as the precautionary statements will be the same both All employees should study the labels on all hazardous materials on the jobsite and also know where the SDS formerly MSDS are kept. The labels will tell you how dangerous the materials are, what precautions to take and what to do in case of fire or exposure to the chemicals. Also look at the SDS on the chemical and know what other precautions (safety equipment) to use.
