Since its promulgation in 2012, environment, health, and safety professionals have been scrambling to get up-to-speed on OSHA’s new hazard communication standard that now is aligned with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS). The new scheme has resulted in changes to requirements for chemical classification, labels, and material safety data sheets. While the modified rule aims to harmonize certain elements of the standard, such as labels and MSDSs, during the first phase of the transition to GHS, there has been more harmonization in the types of compliance questions EHS professionals are asking than in the labels and MSDSs themselves. 

Be prepared for an exciting 90-minute webinar on HazCom compliance, just in time for the fast-approaching Dec. 1, 2013 employee training deadline.

The webinar is designed to:
•Establish a baseline understanding of the changes to HazCom as a result of OSHA’s adoption of GHS
•Explain the current state of the HazCom standard as the end of Phase 1 approaches
•Discuss EHS professionals’ most frequently asked HazCom compliance questions and how the GHS changes are impacting workplaces across the country
•Examine the most pressing compliance issues affecting employers, specifically those related to the upcoming December employee training deadline
•Provide best practices and actionable steps employers can use to ensure compliance with the modified HazCom standard and prevent chemical-related injuries and illnesses from occurring in their workplace
