GHS: A Practical, Step-by-Step Method for Developing an Effective Compliance Strategy
GHS Webinar Recording
You’ve probably had an effective and compliant hazcom program in place for a while now. And the previous Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) took everything into account: training, labeling, available MSDSs correctly formatted, a complete MSD sheet inventory in either paper or electronic form, and more.
But as good as your program is, it’s about to become obsolete. OSHA has now finalized the revised Hazard Communication Standard, which aligns and incorporates the United Nations Global Harmonization Standard (GHS). The changes are sweeping. How should you proceed from here?
Join us for an in-depth webinar for the latest information and recommendations.
You’ll learn:
- The final revisions to the old HCS requirements
- How to assess your existing HCS program to determine what changes are now required post-GHS
- Tips for ensuring compliance with the new training obligations
- How best to develop a strategy to meet the three-year staggered compliance deadlines
- The best strategies for MSDS authoring requirements
- How to address the labeling requirements
- The new requirements that apply to end users, distributors, and chemical manufacturers
- Why taking a Life Cycle Analysis approach to the Hazardous Material Management process, and your HCS program, can be beneficial
