Communicating hazards

Safety data sheets and material safety data sheets are designed to provide employees and emergency personnel with the proper procedures for handling and working with a particular substance. These documents include information that includes physical characteristics, toxicity, health effects, first aid, reactivity, storage, disposal, protective equipment and spill/leak procedures.

Maintaining these documents ensures employees have access to information on hazardous chemicals used in their work areas.

And that’s smart safety!
