Chemical Safety – Using the SDS

Date: Thursday April 10, 2025 at 2:00pm ET - 1:00pm CT - 11:00am PT

If you are using chemicals, you will have Safety Data Sheets (SDS) available. The details of some of the information in the SDS, like the hazard classifications of the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS), can provide a lot of helpful information for assessing chemicals hazards and our chemical safety practices.

This webinar will review the GHS system hazard classifications. The GHS system has very defined hazard classifications, and understanding the details of these classifications is important for assessing potential hazards. The SDS also includes information on chemical and physical properties like vapor pressure, vapor density, solubility, pH, and flash point. These properties and how you can use them for your chemical safety program will also be reviewed.
