WHMIS Stands for Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System It is very important to know these symbols, especially if you are working around dangerous products. Video
WHMIS
WHMIS is useful because you can very quickly see what type of hazard a chemical substance presents. WHMIS
MSDS MSDS stands for material safety data sheet An MSDS gives us much more information! This helps people working with chemicals to remain safe on the job.
MSDS MSDS stands for material safety data sheet An MSDS gives us much more information! This helps people working with chemicals to remain safe on the job.
MSDS Each chemical substance has an MSDS. This tells you important things like: Possible health effects of the chemical What to wear when handling it First aid procedures in case of emergency How to store and dispose of it properly What to do if it catches fire
WHMIS vs MSDS WHMIS only tells us HOW a controlled product is harmful. MSDS tells you specific information about the controlled product.
