Understanding OSHA’s
GHS System for workers
1
Section 1
What is
GHS?
GHS stands for the Globally Harmonized System
of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals.
GHS was developed by the United Nations as a way to bring
into agreement the chemical regulations and standards of
different countries. In short, it is an international attempt to
get all countries on the same page.
1
Effective
dates for
compliance
1
What is GHS
Born out of the United Nations ‘Earth Summit’ of 1992, over
65 countries have already adopted, or are in the process of
adopting, GHS, including the United States and Canada.
GHS is primarily concerned with the classification of
chemicals and the communication of hazards related to
those chemicals to users of the products downstream via
warning labels and safety data sheets.
1
What is GHS
Building on the success of OSHA's current Hazard
Communication Standard, the GHS is expected to prevent:
• injuries and illnesses,
• save lives
• improve trade conditions for chemical manufacturers.
1
What is GHS
• The Hazard Communication Standard in 1983 gave the
workers the ‘right to know,' but the new Globally
Harmonized System gives workers the
‘right to understand.'
1
What is GHS
• Employers must provide unrestricted access to
information about the hazards of the chemicals you
work with.
• Supplier and employers must provide you with
information about hazardous products and how to
protect yourself.
• Must be made available without restrictions
1
The HCS-Hazard
Communication Standard
GHS does not replace OSHA's Hazard Communication
Standard (HCS) it enhances it with a few important
changes.
1. New Label Formats
2. New Hazard Pictograms
3. New name for MSDS “SDS” or Safety Data Sheets
Quiz - GHS
What does GHS stand for
General Hazard Safety
Global Harmonization System
Global Hazard Solutions
2
HCS & GHS
The chemical hazard information will now be
conveyed to you by:
• Labels
• Symbols
• SDS Sheets
• Training
2
Section 2-
GHS Labels and
Pictograms
GHS safety labels have 6
standardized elements:
1. Product Identifier – Must match product
identifier on safety data sheet
2. Manufacturer Contact Information –
Including name, phone number, and address
3. Hazard Pictograms – New label elements
that may require color printers
2
GHS Labels and
Pictograms
GHS safety labels have 6
standardized elements:
4. Signal Word – Either DANGER or WARNING
depending upon hazard severity
5. Hazard Statements – Standardized sentences
that describes the level of the hazards
6. Precautionary Statements – Steps employees
can take to protect themselves
2
GHS Labels and
Pictograms
In addition to the hazard
symbols, a GHS label should
identify the product and list
hazards, precautions, and first
aid measures.
Additional information is
provided on the SDS.
Note: GHS labels are also
required on secondary
containers in the workplace.
Danger
EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE!! Highly flammable liquid and
vapor Causes mild skin irritation. Causes serious eye
irritation. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Wear
protective gloves/ eye protection/ face protection.
First Aid
SKIN: In case of contact with skin immediately remove
contaminated clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap &
water. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
INHALATION: If breathed in, move person into fresh
air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
Consult a physician. EYE CONTACT: For eyes, flush with
plenty of water for 15 minutes & get medical
attention. Refer to material Safety Data Sheet for
more information
2
GHS Labels and
Pictograms
GHS safety
labels have 6
standardized
elements:
• Here is an
example of a
compliant label
2
Hazard Classes / Symbols
Hazard symbols appear on container labels and SDS
sheets as a visual alert.
Products are classified by the supplier to identify
hazardous properties such as toxicity, flammability
and reactivity.
2
Hazard Classes / Symbols
These symbols alert you
immediately to a product's
potential hazards.
The pictograms act as a
STOP sign. They alert you
to read the SDS,
understand the hazards of
the chemical and how to
protect yourself
2Hazard Classes / Symbols
There are 9 hazard
class symbols
under GHS.
Each Pictogram
represents a
different hazard.
They will appear on
labels and new
SDS Sheets
Quiz – Labels & Symbols
How do Hazard class symbols improve
the Hazard Communication System?
They can be understood without
knowing the language.
They act as a “Stop Sign” to warn you
of the hazards
They are universal between countries.
All of the above
3SDS Sheets
MSDSs Get a New Look
Under GHS alignment, safety data
sheets remain the backbone of HCS
compliance. They do, however, get a
name and formatting change.
3SDS Sheets
MSDSs Get a New Look
GHS drops the M from MSDS and calls them
SDSs. More importantly, SDS’s have a
standardized 16 section format with a required
ordering of sections. It is essentially the ANSI
Standard for MSDSs with a few adjustments.
Lets take a look
3
SDS
Sheets
Safety Data Sheets:
The new format requires
16 specific sections in a
specific order.
This way all SDS sheets
will be formatted the
same which makes it
much easier to read.
1. Identification
2. Hazard(s) Identification
3. Composition/Ingredient Information
4. First-Aid Measures
5. Fire-Fighting Measures
6. Accidental Release Measures
7. Handling and Storage
8. Exposure Control/Personal
Protection
9. Physical & Chemical Properties
10.Stability & Reactivity
11.Toxicological Information
12.Ecological Information
13.Disposal Considerations
14.Transport Information
15.Regulatory Information
16.Other Information
3
SDS
Sheets
To be GHS compliant, an
SDS needs all 16
sections; however,
OSHA will not be
enforcing sections 12-15,
which fall outside their
jurisdiction. These will be
covered by EPA and
related environmental
agencies.

They are required to be available to
you the employee by your
employer any time you request to
see them.
3Safety Data Sheets (SDSs)
Safety Data Sheets are
provided by the supplier to give
users detailed information about
the hazards and safe use of
products.
NOTE: Before using any
product for the first time review
the MSDS for information on
health effects, fire hazards,
handling, storage, and personal
protection.

What sections of the SDS do not fall
under OSHA guidance?
First-Aid Measures
Accidental Release Measures
Ecological Information
4Employee Responsibility
The new GHS standard
has been adopted by
OSHA to protect you but
what do you need to do to
protect yourself?
4Employee Responsibility
Avoid over exposure or contact with
chemicals by protecting yourself with
PPE
(Personal Protective Equipment)
Also through the use of engineering
controls such as good ventilation.
4Employee Responsibility
Know and understand routes of
entry and how chemicals can enter
your system. Inhalation and
absorption are the most
common. What are the other 2?
4Employee Responsibility
Know the location of
eyewash stations,
showers, fire
extinguishers, first aid
kits and spill cleanup
supplies before an
incident occurs.
4Employee Responsibility
Understand the limits of PPE.
Note: PPE does not remove a
workplace hazard and does
not replace effective engineering
or administrative controls such
as substitution or ventilation.
PPE is the last line of defense
when the hazard cannot be
removed or controlled
adequately
4Employee Responsibility
1. Read the labels and SDS before
you use a chemical. Follow the
precautions and ask if you don’t
understand.
4Employee Responsibility
2. Be prepared if you have a
spill or leak and know where
the spill kit is. Only trained
employees should clean up a
large spill. Make sure you
have emergency numbers
available should you have a
large spill.
4Employee Responsibility
3. Store and handle chemicals safely.
Secure gas cylinders, use approved
chemical containers and only store
chemicals in a safe manner when not in
use. Most important, practice good
common sense when handling
chemicals and know the hazards.

  • 14. 2 GHS Labels and Pictograms GHS safety labels have 6 standardized elements: • Here is an example of a compliant label
  • 15. 2 Hazard Classes / Symbols Hazard symbols appear on container labels and SDS sheets as a visual alert. Products are classified by the supplier to identify hazardous properties such as toxicity, flammability and reactivity.
  • 16. 2 Hazard Classes / Symbols These symbols alert you immediately to a product's potential hazards. The pictograms act as a STOP sign. They alert you to read the SDS, understand the hazards of the chemical and how to protect yourself
  • 17. 2Hazard Classes / Symbols There are 9 hazard class symbols under GHS. Each Pictogram represents a different hazard. They will appear on labels and new SDS Sheets
  • 18. Quiz – Labels & Symbols How do Hazard class symbols improve the Hazard Communication System? They can be understood without knowing the language. They act as a “Stop Sign” to warn you of the hazards They are universal between countries. All of the above
  • 19. 3SDS Sheets MSDSs Get a New Look Under GHS alignment, safety data sheets remain the backbone of HCS compliance. They do, however, get a name and formatting change.
  • 20. 3SDS Sheets MSDSs Get a New Look GHS drops the M from MSDS and calls them SDSs. More importantly, SDS’s have a standardized 16 section format with a required ordering of sections. It is essentially the ANSI Standard for MSDSs with a few adjustments. Lets take a look
  • 21. 3 SDS Sheets Safety Data Sheets: The new format requires 16 specific sections in a specific order. This way all SDS sheets will be formatted the same which makes it much easier to read. 1. Identification 2. Hazard(s) Identification 3. Composition/Ingredient Information 4. First-Aid Measures 5. Fire-Fighting Measures 6. Accidental Release Measures 7. Handling and Storage 8. Exposure Control/Personal Protection 9. Physical & Chemical Properties 10.Stability & Reactivity 11.Toxicological Information 12.Ecological Information 13.Disposal Considerations 14.Transport Information 15.Regulatory Information 16.Other Information
  • 22. 3 SDS Sheets To be GHS compliant, an SDS needs all 16 sections; however, OSHA will not be enforcing sections 12-15, which fall outside their jurisdiction. These will be covered by EPA and related environmental agencies. 1. Identification 2. Hazard(s) Identification 3. Composition/Ingredient Information 4. First-Aid Measures 5. Fire-Fighting Measures 6. Accidental Release Measures 7. Handling and Storage 8. Exposure Control/Personal Protection 9. Physical & Chemical Properties 10.Stability & Reactivity 11.Toxicological Information 12.

  • 32. 3Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) SDS: Section 7 Handling and StorageSection 7 is important information for safe handling, storage and dispensing of the chemicals.
  • 33. 3Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) SDS: Section 8 Exposure Control/Personal Protection Section 8 gives you information on how to protect yourself from over exposure.
  • 34. 3Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) SDS: Section 9 & 10 • Physical & Chemical Properties • Stability & Reactivity 9 and 10 have key information about the chemical and if there are reaction dangers.
  • 35. 3Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) SDS: Section 11 • Toxicological Information Section 11 includes routes of exposure, acute and chronic effects and related symptoms.
  • 36. Quiz – SDS Sheets What sections of the SDS do not fall under OSHA guidance? First-Aid Measures Accidental Release Measures Ecological Information
  • 37. 4Employee Responsibility The new GHS standard has been adopted by OSHA to protect you but what do you need to do to protect yourself?
  • 38. 4Employee Responsibility Avoid over exposure or contact with chemicals by protecting yourself with PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) Also through the use of engineering controls such as good ventilation.
  • 39. 4Employee Responsibility Know and understand routes of entry and how chemicals can enter your system. Inhalation and absorption are the most common. What are the other 2?
  • 40. 4Employee Responsibility Know the location of eyewash stations, showers, fire extinguishers, first aid kits and spill cleanup supplies before an incident occurs.
  • 41. 4Employee Responsibility Understand the limits of PPE. Note: PPE does not remove a workplace hazard and does not replace effective engineering or administrative controls such as substitution or ventilation. PPE is the last line of defense when the hazard cannot be removed or controlled adequately
  • 42. 4Employee Responsibility 1. Read the labels and SDS before you use a chemical. Follow the precautions and ask if you don’t understand.
  • 43. 4Employee Responsibility 2. Be prepared if you have a spill or leak and know where the spill kit is. Only trained employees should clean up a large spill. Make sure you have emergency numbers available should you have a large spill.
  • 44. 4Employee Responsibility 3. Store and handle chemicals safely. Secure gas cylinders, use approved chemical containers and only store chemicals in a safe manner when not in use. Most important, practice good common sense when handling chemicals and know the hazards.
