OSHA recently altered the way in which hazardous material
labeling will look. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) will now be called
Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and will have a new look, with a more consistent
definition and the addition of standard pictograms. Education and training is
required on your part to educate your employees now, before new product labels
arrive.
This new training must be in place by December 1, 2013.
Please see this YouTube video for a quick
understanding of the new OSHA rules and regulations pertaining to Hazard
Communications.
The “Highlights” section on the OSHA page pertaining to the
new changes have many useful downloads for your use.
