Health and Safety Hazards - Hazard Communication

Hazard communication is a set of procedures that employers must implement to protect employees from injury and illness associated with using chemicals. To ensure chemical safety in the workplace employers must meet these standards. These processes will confirm that the employee knows about the risks involved with the chemicals they employ at work. The Occupational Health and Safety Act (OSHA) and the Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) provide global standards to help employees meet these requirements. This course provides all the necessary information and examples to make your workplace safe and your employees aware of dangers.The first section looks in depth at how you can establish hazard communication and the information required. You will look at the advantage of using the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) to create a consistent logical system for identifying chemicals and presenting hazard information on labels and safety data sheets (SDS) correctly. You will explore the possible health consequences that can arise should the standards not be met. We demonstrate how to label containers effectively for primary secondary stationary and portable systems. You will investigate the SDS in detail so that all SDS are uniform with supporting information under the required sixteen headings.The final section of the course looks in more detail at the importance of training employees. Employers must convey the chemical information when employees are first allocated a task or before any new assignment. Awareness and training are crucial and this course is jam-packed with all you require to guarantee your workplace follows all the guidelines and standards necessary to protect your employees. Become an expert in hazard communication and be the go-to person your employer or employees can rely on to make sure they are protected.
