WHMIS, HHPS & CLASSROOM SAFETY

What is WHMIS? Stands for Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System. An internationally recognized system that describes hazards associated with certain materials.

WHMIS Symbols Compressed Gas Flammable & Combustible Material

WHMIS Symbols Cont’d Oxidizing MaterialPoisonous & Infectious Material Causing Immediate & Serious Toxic Effects

WHMIS Symbols Cont’d Poisonous and Infectious Material Causing Other Toxic Effects Biohazardous Infectious Material

WHMIS Symbols Cont’d Corrosive MaterialDangerously Reactive Material

What is HHPS? Stands for HouseHold Product Safety. A list of symbols used for common household items.

HHPS Symbols Corrosive Material This product will burn skin or eyes on contact. Throat and stomach if swallowed. Explosive Material This container can explode if it is heated or punctured.

HHPS Symbols Cont’d Flammable Material This product, or its fumes, will catch fire easily if exposed to heat, flames or sparks. Poisonous Material Licking, eating, drinking or sometimes smelling this product is likely to cause illness or death.

The HHPS has three levels of severity Caution is the least sever of the three symbols, warning is more severe and danger is the most severe. Hazardous Household Product Symbols
