Information sources on Chemical Hazards Tiina Santonen Paide 3.11.03

MSDS’s are usually the main information sources in workplaces However, in many cases more information are needed than is provided by standard MSDS On the other hand, if MSDS is not available or not easily understandable, “shop floor” information for workers or employers can be found e.g. from International Chemical Safety Cards

Free information sources on chemical hazards available in internet: Toxnet (http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/) IPCS Inchem (http://www.inchem.org/) Pubmed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi)
