Requirements for the Revised Hazard Communication Standard 2 Requirements for the Revised Hazard Communication Standard OSHA revised its Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) to align with the United Nations’ Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) and published it in the Federal Register in March 2012 Two significant changes contained in the revised standard require the use of new labeling elements and a standardized format for Safety Data Sheets (SDSs), formerly known as, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs). The new label elements and SDS requirements will improve worker understanding of the hazards associated with the chemicals in their workplace. Requirements for the Revised Hazard Communication Standard OSHA revised its Hazard Communication Standard to align with the United Nations’ Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals. There are two significant changes a standardized format for Safety Data Sheets (SDSs), formerly known as, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) and use of the new label elements and SDS requirements This will improve worker understanding of the hazards associated with the chemicals in their workplace.

Training Requirements 3 Training Requirements Training on the Label Elements Product identifier: how the hazardous chemical is identified Signal word: used to indicate the relative level of severity of the hazard Pictogram: OSHA’s required pictograms Hazard statement(s): describe the nature of the hazard(s) Precautionary statement(s): phrase that describes recommended measures to minimize or prevent adverse effects of the chemical Location of: Name, address and phone number of the chemical manufacturer, distributor, or importer Training on the format of the Safety Data Sheets (SDS) Standardized16-section format Training Requirements Training on the Label Elements Product identifier: how the hazardous chemical is identified Signal word: used to indicate the relative level of severity of the hazard Pictogram: OSHA’s required pictograms Hazard statement(s): describe the nature of the hazard(s) Precautionary statement(s): phrase that describes recommended measures to minimize or prevent adverse effects of the chemical Location of: Name, address and phone number of the chemical manufacturer, distributor, or importer Training on the format of the Safety Data Sheets (SDS) Standardized16-section format

Labels: Product Identifier: 4 Labels: Product Identifier: The product identifier is the name and number that allows you to identify the chemical in the container. Supplier identification must include the name, address, and telephone number for the chemical manufacturer, importer, or other supplier. The chemical label will include one of two signal words that tell you the relative severity of the hazard presented. “Danger” is used for the more severe hazards. “Warning” is used for less severe hazards and is less serious than “Danger.” Labels: Product Identifier: The product identifier , allows you to identify the chemical in the container. It will include Supplier identification -name, address, and telephone number for the chemical manufacturer, importer, or other supplier. And the chemical label will include one of two signal words that tell you the relative severity of the hazard presented. “Danger” or “Warning”

Labels: Product Identifier: 5 Labels: Product Identifier: Name and number - to identify the chemical Supplier identification Signal word Danger or Warning Lets take a closer look at the sample label Upper left (click1) product identifier where you will find the Code or number (418) and the product name (418 Developer) Next is the (click2) Supplier identification name, address, and telephone number for the chemical manufacturer, Upper right (click3) is the signal words “Danger” “Warning”

Labels: Signal Word “DANGER”(more severe hazard) 6 Labels: Signal Word These are words used to indicate the severity of the hazard and alert employees to the potential hazard. Only 2 signal words will appear: “DANGER”(more severe hazard) “WARNING” (less severe hazard) Not all labels will have a signal word. Some chemicals are not hazardous enough to require that a signal word appear on the label. Labels: Signal Word These are words used to indicate the severity of the hazard “DANGER”(more severe hazard) “WARNING” (less severe hazard In the past, there have been several signal words that may have been used to indicate a hazard like caution, warning, danger. The GHS permits the use of only 2 signal words: “Danger” or “Warning”. Only 1 of the signal words is permitted to appear on the label based on the classification of the chemical. Not all labels will have a signal word. Some chemicals are not hazardous enough to require that a signal word appear on the label

* * * * * * * * * Labels: Pictograms Health Hazards * 7 Labels: Pictograms * * There are 8 pictograms Health Hazards * Physical Hazards * * * * * * Labels: Pictograms: The new labels will have pictograms There are 8 pictograms (click1) 3 for Health Hazards (click2) 4 for Physical Hazards (click3) 1 shared with both Health and Physical There are 3 pictograms specific to health hazards: Exclamation Mark , Health Hazard (silhouette of a person with starburst on the chest) and Skull & Crossbones. Lets look at the pictogram with a starburst, it could indicate the chemical is a (click4) carcinogen and the pictogram the exclamation mark could indicate a chemical that can cause (click5) irritant to skin and eyes. The pictogram that is shared by both physical and/or health hazard is that of a corrosive chemical. The chemical could be hazardous to health as well damaging to metals. There are 4 pictograms specific to physical hazards: Exploding Bomb, Flame, Flame Over Circle (oxidizer) and Gas Cylinder. * *

Labels: Pictograms Red borders required. No blank pictograms. 8 All pictograms will have red borders None will be blank pictograms The following slides will provide more detail related to the pictograms.

Labels: Pictograms – Health Hazards 9 Labels: Pictograms – Health Hazards Exclamation Mark Skull & Crossbones Pictograms for Health Hazards These 2 pictograms are specific to acute toxicity (short-term exposure). The Skull & Crossbones is for any substance that is classified as having acute toxicity in health hazard category 1-3 (the most hazardous ) and the acute toxicity health class, category 4 (least hazardous) is represented by an Exclamation Mark. If the substance is properly labeled, these 2 pictograms will never appear on the same label. Acute toxicity (Less Severe): Irritant Dermal sensitizer Acute toxicity (harmful) Narcotic effects Respiratory tract irritation Acute toxicity (Severe)

Labels: Pictograms – Health Hazards 10 Labels: Pictograms – Health Hazards Health Hazard Carcinogen Respiratory sensitizer Reproductive toxicity Target organ toxicity Mutagenicity Aspiration Hazard Pictograms for Health Hazards: The pictogram to the right is called the “Health Hazard” pictogram and is represented by the starburst across the chest. This is used to indicate that the substance is a chronic (over time) and could target certain organ or other hazards.

Labels: Pictograms – Health Hazards and or Physical Hazards 11 Labels: Pictograms – Health Hazards and or Physical Hazards Corrosive Pictograms for Health Hazards and or Physical Hazards: The corrosive pictogram used to designate corrosion to metal, it is the same pictogram used for skin corrosion/serious eye damage/eye irritation under the health hazard classification. Skin corrosion Serious eye damage/ Eye irritation Corrosive to Metals

Labels: Pictograms – Physical Hazards 12 Labels: Pictograms – Physical Hazards Flame Exploding Bomb Flammables Self reactive Pyrophoric Self heating Emits flammable gas Organic peroxides Pictograms for Physical Hazards: These pictograms represent physical hazards. The one on the left Exploding Bomb The one on right is a Flame one you would see on flammable chemicals Explosives Self reactive Organic peroxides

Labels: Pictograms – Physical Hazards 13 Labels: Pictograms – Physical Hazards Flame Over Circle Gas Cylinder Pictograms for Physical Hazards: These pictograms represent physical hazards. The one on the left Flame Over Circle “Oxidizers” The one on right Gas Cylinder with Gases under Pressure Oxidizers Gases under Pressure Explosives Self reactive Organic peroxides

Labels with more than one Pictograms 14 Labels with more than one Pictograms Labels with more than one Pictograms: Some products could have more that one pictogram for that product.. In this product the pictogram on the left (click 1) indicates that it is Corrosive and could have a Health and or Physical Hazard Not all health hazards represented by this pictogram are corrosive to metal so it is important to look for additional information on the label and in the SDS The one in the middle (click2) the Flame over circle is a chemicals that is an Oxidizers that can emit oxygen and increase the risk of fire. The one on the right (click3) is a Gas Cylinder indicates that this product is gases under pressure Corrosive Flame Over Circle Gas Cylinder

Labels: Hazard Statements 15 Labels: Hazard Statements “Hazard statement” - a statement assigned to a hazard class and category that describes the nature of the hazard(s) of a chemical, including, where appropriate, the degree of hazard. For example: Harmful if inhaled [for Category 4 Acute Toxicity - Inhalation] Labels Hazard Statements: Hazard statement will show the hazard class (with the pictogram) the category (with the signal word) and the nature of the hazard (with the hazard statement) Lets look at some examples: The first one on the left (click1) has a “Scull &Crossbones”(Health Acute toxicity) with a signal word (click2) of “Danger”(severe hazard) and the HOW you can be harmed by (click3) -is in the Hazard Statement “Fatal if inhaled” Look at the one on the right (click4) has a “Exclamation Mark ”(Health Acute toxicity) with a signal word (click5) of “Warning”(least hazardous) and the HOW you can be harmed by (click6) - is in the Hazard Statement “Harmful if inhaled” Pictogram Signal word Danger Warning Hazard statement Fatal if inhaled Toxic if inhaled Harmful if inhaled

Label: Precautionary Statements 16 Label: Precautionary Statements Precautionary statements describe recommended measures that should be taken to protect against hazardous exposures, or improper storage or handling of a chemical. Examples: Wear respiratory protection Wash with soap and water Store in a well ventilated place Label: Precautionary Statements "Precautionary statement" means a phrase that describes recommended measures that should be taken to minimize or prevent adverse effects resulting from exposure to a hazardous chemical, It could give you information how to properly store and handle the product. For example: A precautionary statement may state “Wear respiratory protection”; to minimize or prevent exposure Example on proper storage “Store in a well ventilated place”

How do we use this information on the label: 17 How do we use this information on the label: Proper storage of hazardous chemical Target organs Personal Protective Equipment How do we use this information on the label: Under the Precautionary Statement (click1) Proper storage of hazardous chemical- “Keep container tightly closed” (click2) Personal Protective Equipment “Wear protective gloves” (click3) Information on First Aid “ If exposed call Poison Center” (click4) Hazard Statement Target organs “May cause liver and kidney damage” Information on First Aid www.osha.gov/Publications/HazComm_QuickCard_Labels.html

Labels: Secondary containers 18 Labels: Secondary containers Employers who only store chemicals may either use OSHA’s new labeling system or continue using the NFPA 704 rating system or HMIS system (OSHA plans to change the labeling system June 1, 2016) Labels: Secondary containers Often chemicals are stored in secondary containers: You will need to use the new OSHA labeling system or The NFPA 704 rating system or the HMIS system This can be confusing lets take look at the differences

Labels: GHS Comparison 19 Labels: GHS Comparison GHS classification ratings order of severity differ from NFPA and HMIS: HMIS/NFPA 0 = Least Hazardous 4 = Most Hazardous GHS 5 = Least Hazardous 1 = Most Hazardous Labels: GHS Comparison At this time there is a difference between GHS classification rating and the HMIS/NFPA HMIS/NFPA rating says that 0 = Least Hazardous 4 = Most Hazardous GHS rating says that 5 = Least Hazardous 1 = Most Hazardous

20 Safety Data Sheets Under the new Haz Com Standard, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are now called Safety Data Sheets (SDS). All SDSs will have a consistent 16-section format. Employers must ensure that SDSs are readily accessible to employees. Safety Data Sheets Under the new Haz Com Standard, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) are now called Safety Data Sheets (SDS). Manufacturers, importers and distributers may begin using the new 16-section format SDS (follows the ANSI standard) All SDSs will have a consistent 16-section format. Employers are required to maintain copies of all SDSs for the chemicals used and/or stored within the work area. The employer are to maintain a copy of the most current SDS and archive prior MSDSs/SDSs. In the following slides we will look at each one of the sections.
