Preparing for OSHA's New GHS Rule Web Seminar

Soon OSHA will align its Hazard Communication Standard with the global harmonization system (GHS) for classifying and labeling chemicals. The change affects over 40 million employees nationwide, and the new system substantially changes the existing OSHA standard. Employers will need to learn new chemical classification criteria, replace ALL MSDSs with new Safety Data Sheets (SDSs), update or replace chemical labels, and train all employees on the new HazCom rules.

At this two-hour web seminar, you will learn how OSHA’s adoption of the GHS affects your facility and how to effectively implement your company’s new HazCom program. Registration includes access to the web seminar, downloadable workbooks, and certificate of attendance.

GHS Rule Training Topics:

  • What is GHS?
  • GHS’ new hazard classification system
  • GHS versus HMIS and NFPA classification
  • OSHA's new chemical labeling system  
  • Changing from MSDSs to SDSs
  • Structure and mandatory elements of Safety Data Sheets
  • Employer responsibilities when the rule is adopted
  • Employee training requirements and deadlines
  • How this change will affect other standards
  • Strategies and options for preparing your facility

Who Should Attend:

Employees responsible for developing or overseeing a company’s HazCom program. This includes EH&S managers, plant managers, general managers, corporate EH&S directors, and supervisors. This web seminar is not designed for “operations”-level employees. Regulated industries include any workplace that produces, uses, and/or stores hazardous chemicals.
