Overview
More than 32 million workers are exposed to 650,000 hazardous chemicals in more than 3 million workplaces.  And hundreds of new chemical products are introduced every year, each with its own particular health and physical hazards.

OSHA implemented the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) help employers and employees protect themselves from chemical hazards, and reduce the incidence of related illness and injuries.

The National Safety Council created the Hazard Communication Compliance Course to help you comply with the HCS in your own facility.  In just four hours, we'll walk you through the key elements of the HCS, and show you how to protect your employees and your business. The seminar covers:
  • How to determine if hazardous chemicals are present in your workplace
  • Steps for setting up an effective hazard communication program
  • Guidelines for labeling hazardous chemicals
  • Using Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) to evaluate hazardous chemical exposures
  • Promoting responsibility for initial and ongoing hazard communication activities
  • Assessing gaps between the HCS and your workplace program, and identifying key actions for closing the gaps
You'll go back with the know-how to:
  • Empower your employees to identify - and avoid - potential problems
  • Assess situations where exposure to chemicals has occurred
  • Reduce chemical-related illnesses and injuries throughout your facility
  • Save on workers' comp and related costs
