TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES
June Virtual Meeting:
GHS, Hazard Communications, SDS, and Proper Labeling
Join us for our monthly event by joining the webinar on the first Tuesday of June by clicking on the "Join Meeting" link on the home page.
Program Description:
Hazard Communication never seems to go away does it? Part of the reason is the old adage “The SDS is the Cornerstone to Safety.” In many ways it is, there is a lot of information on an SDS these days. The required content on SDSs will help your emergency planning, proper PPE selection, healthcare planning and understanding of physical properties. Additionally, the format for SDSs and labels has become so specific you are able to access information quickly and reliably. This class will cover the expectations of the Hazard Communication Standard training, SDSs, labeling and chemical safety, with a focus on how important it is for each worker to understand chemical safety in their worksite.
Presented By:
Paul Utterback, MS, EdM, CIH, Senior Occupational Health Consultant in Industrial Hygiene and Ergonomics, Oregon OSHA
