GHS (Chemicals Handling) Training - Jan 8th

The Department of Public Safety is hosting four mandatory training sessions on Wednesday, January 8, 2014 for anyone who is employed by Augsburg and may work with or around chemicals.

- Revised criteria for classification of chemical hazards;
- Revised labeling provisions that include requirements for use of standardized signal words, pictograms, hazard statements, and precautionary statements;
- A specified format for safety data sheets;
- Related revisions to definitions of terms used in the standard; and
- Requirements for employee training on labels and safety data sheets
