The Problem Regulations vary widely internationally E.g., U.S. has HazCom Standard, Canada has WHMIS, Europe has CLP Different agencies within the same country may have jurisdiction over hazardous chemical use and safety E.g., in the U.S.: EPA, DOT, OSHA, Consumer Product Safety Commission Multiple labels & MSDSs required for same product to satisfy different country & agency requirements Resulting in confusion for end-users Creating trade issues/hassles multinational companies Costly & time consuming to manage When it comes to Hazard Communication… 14

GHS At-A-Glance GHS is Not… A Regulation, Standard or Mandate GHS is… A Best Practices Approach. It contains criteria, provisions, and explanatory text for harmonizing hazard communication Adaptable by Country (and Agency) Referred to as the “Building Block Approach” Select parts of system that apply to existing regulations Implementation consistent with requirements in place, or can use to create new requirements 16

Two Most Prevalent Changes “"Classification" means to identify the relevant data regarding the hazards of a chemical; review those data to ascertain the hazards associated with the chemical; and decide whether the chemical will be classified as hazardous according to the definition of hazardous chemical in this section.” OSHA added the definition of Classification to the revised standard: 41

Inventory your on-site chemicals Make sure you have a complete library of MSDSs Employers... Have an HCS plan! Maintain a checklist of key plan components Review it annually, at least Prepare yourself for the eventual MSDS churn If you’re still using paper, consider transitioning to electronic system Make sure your secondary labeling system is GHS compliant Start developing a training plan for your employees Stay current on OSHA Federal State & local Keep an eye on GHS Key dates Impact on your plan Request GHS compliant SDSs from chemical vendors Ensure staff is on the lookout for SDSs with new shipments Stay SARA compliant 71
