The required P-codes are a direct correlation from the classification of the material. The correspondence is found in the Purple Book from the UN or in Appendix C of 29CFR1910.1200 "Allocation of Label Elements" although HAZCOM does not list "P-NNN" - it just gives the words and the user needs to make the correlation.

A GHS question for those with more experience than I at writing SDS's:

Are the Precautionary codes associated with a chemical determined on a case by a case basis or are they the same for all chemicals with the same combination of GHS Hazard codes?

Thanks for any information on this.
