GHS Training
Prepare your workforce for OSHA’s hazard communication standard with mandatory training.
GHS (Globally Harmonized System) was developed by the United Nations to be adopted as a worldwide program. The Globally Harmonized System creates a consistent system of classifying chemical hazards on labels, safety data sheets through standardization. This was achieved by a combination of hazard statements, hazard symbols and hazard signal words.
The UN’s GHS lays out the standardization practices for participating countries but does not enforce compliance. Each country is responsible for adopting and implementing the GHS through their enforcement agencies, like the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). On March 26, 2012, OSHA published the final rule to revise the Hazard Communication Standard §1910.1200 to align with the GHS.
