*Key points covered*
- *Introduction to hazardous chemicals* – Common types of hazardous chemicals and the risks they pose, including flammables, corrosives, toxins, and carcinogens.
- *The evolution from MSDS to GHS SDS* – How the shift to GHS Safety Data Sheets standardized chemical safety information for better clarity and accessibility.
- *Structure of a GHS SDS* – A breakdown of the 16 sections covering chemical identification, hazards, first aid measures, firefighting procedures, handling/storage, and more.
- *Emergency response* – How to react to chemical exposure, spills, leaks, and fires using information from the SDS.
- *Preventing chemical hazards* – Guidelines on PPE, engineering controls, proper storage, and disposal methods.
- *Regulatory compliance* – Understanding how GHS adoption aligns with OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard and global chemical safety standards.
