Safetec is
offering a free webinar on the Globally Harmonized System of
Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) on February 24th, 2010.
OSHA is currently in rulemaking which will incorporate many
elements of the GHS and will ultimately result in the largest change to
the HazCom Standard (among others) since its inception. You can
read more about the GHS here: http://www.ilpi.com/msds/re
f/ghs.html
The Webinar is
open to everyone. Disclaimer 1: Obviously, Safetec would like to
sell you their services, but it appears this event appears to be more
than just a sales pitch. Disclaimer 2: Safetec is one of ILPI's ad
clients, but I'd still be posting this note regardless given the
relevance to DCHAS list members/activities. Neither I nor ILPI is
receiving compensation for announcement of this
event.
Contact/registration info is given in the announcement below.
Please do not contact ILPI or Safety Emporium regarding the
webinar.

Webinar: Preparing Your Organization For GHS
Compliance
With the recent official announcement from OSHA of the
implementation of GHS into the current Hazard Communication Standard
many organizations are struggling to understand the complexities of
these new regulations and how they will affect their
organization. MSDSs are turning into SDSs, pictograms will be
required on labels, chemicals will need to be classified and many other
changes are in store. These modifications will require all employers in
the US to make fundamental alterations to the workplace while requiring
new training for employees.
It will be a
significant challenge for most organizations to comply. However, by
planning today, and with a little help, most organizations will have a
successful implementation of GHS. Ensuring a streamlined, effective and
efficient process is the key to maintaining compliance and a central
component of Safetec's Chemical Compliance Manager. Attend
this no-cost Web seminar, Preparing Your Organization For GHS
Compliance, and understand Safetec's support for GHS in addition to
Chemical Management, Compliance and Control.
