Hazardous Materials Labels
Our Hazardous Materials Labels digital course aims to enable employees to discern the features of various labeling systems as well as the information they convey.
Our Hazardous Materials Labels digital course is crafted to empower employees with the knowledge to identify the attributes of diverse labeling systems and the data they communicate. By understanding the distinctions and commonalities among these systems, employees can proficiently operate in environments containing hazardous materials. A key strategy for identifying these perilous substances is through the utilization of container tags. Ranging from tiny bottles to colossal railcars, labels and placards offer crucial details about a container's contents, steps to take, and whom to contact during emergencies. Given the critical role this information plays in safely managing and transporting these potentially lethal substances, numerous organizations have developed systems for labeling and placarding to inform employees about a container's contents.
This digital Hazardous Materials Labels course encompasses the following subjects:
- OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard
- The incorporation of the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) for the Classification and Labeling of Chemicals into the HAZCOM Standard
- Department of Transportation (DOT) hazardous material classification
- DOT tag and placard prerequisites
- United Nations identification codes
- The "Hazardous Materials Identification System" (HMIS)
