8. How will you know if a chemical is HAZARDOUS?
Under the revised Hazard Communication Standard
(HCS), any chemical that presents a physical hazard or a
health hazard is considered a hazardous chemical.

WORK AREA-SPECIFIC
HAZARDS
9. The HCS definitions for physical and health hazards are:
• Physical hazard means a chemical for which there is scientifically valid
evidence that it is a combustible liquid, a compressed gas, explosive,
flammable, an organic peroxide, an oxidizer, pyrophoric, unstable (reactive) or
water-reactive.
• Health hazard means a chemical for which there is statistically significant
evidence based on at least one study conducted in accordance with
established scientific principles that acute or chronic health effects may occur
in exposed employees. The term "health hazard" includes chemicals which
are carcinogens, toxic or highly toxic agents, reproductive toxins, irritants,
corrosives, sensitizers, hepatotoxins, nephrotoxins, neurotoxins, agents which
act on the hematopoietic system, and agents which damage the lungs, skin,
eyes, or mucous membranes.

supplier identification.
13. NEW labels will require the following elements:
Pictogram: a symbol plus other graphic elements. There are nine
pictograms under the GHS.
Signal words: a single word used to indicate the relative level of
severity of hazard . The signal words used are “Danger" and “Warning”.
Hazard Statement: a statement assigned to describe the nature of the
hazard(s) of a chemical.
Precautionary Statement: a phrase that describes measures to be
taken to minimize or prevent adverse effects
Product Identifier (ingredient disclosure): Name or number used for
a hazardous product on a label or in the SDS.
Supplier identification: The name, address and telephone number
should be provided on the label.

LABELING
SIGNAL WORDS
A single word used to indicate the severity of the
hazard and alert employees to a potential hazard on
the label.
This final rule requires the use of one of two signal
words for labeling:
“DANGER” (more severe hazard).
“WARNING” (less severe hazard).
26. There are specific hazard statements that must
appear on the label based on the chemical hazard
classification.
Examples:
• Highly Flammable liquid.
• Causes mild skin irritation.
• Causes serious eye irritation.
LABELING
HAZARD STATEMENT
27. • Recommended measures that should be taken to protect
against hazardous exposures:
• Prevention
• Response
• Storage
• Disposal
• Examples:
• Keep away from heat/sparks/open flame.
• No smoking.
• Avoid breathing fumes/vapors.
• ANSI Standard Z129.1, Hazardous Industrial Chemicals –
Precautionary Labeling (Document ID #0610), was developed to
provide a consistent approach to labeling of hazardous
chemicals.
LABELING
PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENT
28. • Some operations may require transferring chemicals from the
original labeled container into a secondary container.
• Secondary labels must comply with primary label requirements
if any of the following events occur:
• The material is not used within the work shift of the
individual who makes the transfer.
• The worker who made the transfer leaves the work area.
• The container is moved to another work area and is no
longer in the possession of the worker who filled the
container.
• Secondary containers that will be used immediately by the
employee and the contents used completely, will not require an
OSHA compliant label.
LABELING
SECONDARY LABEL REQUIREMENTS
30. • Provides detailed information about potential hazards
associated with materials used or stored in your work
area.
• Advises on the:
• Appropriate way to handle the chemical.
• What PPE is required for handling the chemical.
• How to properly store the chemical.
• Information on handling spill cleanup, etc.
