Get Ready, Get Set…
Implementing the revisions to the Hazard Communication Standard!


Here are 8 steps your organization can take during the phase-in period to prepare for full compliance with GHS:

1. Have a hazard communication plan. Maintain a checklist of key plan components and review
it annually.

2. Inventory your on-site chemicals and make sure you have a complete library of MSDSs and SDSs as you get them.

3. Prepare yourself for the eventual switchover from MSDS to SDS. If you’re still using paper, consider transitioning to electronic system.

4. Make sure your alternative labeling system is GHS compliant.

5. Start developing a training plan for your employees now. Have a plan and make sure employees are ready to read GHS compliant SDSs and labels.

6. Stay current on OSHA, including federal, state and local requirements. Keep an eye on GHS, looking out for key dates that will have an impact on your plan.

7. Request GHS-compliant SDSs from your chemical vendors. Talk to your chemical suppliers and ask about their plans to transition to GHS. Make sure your staff is on the lookout for SDSs with new shipments.

8. Stay SARA compliant. Update local and state emergency response agencies when new chemical hazard information becomes available. (SARA is the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act, which requires facilities who are subject to OSHA's hazardous chemical requirements to submit (M)SDSs or a hazardous chemical list to local and state authorities.)

By following these steps, you'll be well on your way to preparing for the new requirements.
