As your workplace makes the transition to the GHS, this program provides an overview of the Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals, including chemicals classification and hazard communication through labels and safety data sheets.

Safety Data Sheets can be very challenging to read and understand but they do contain a wealth of information. Having an ability to properly interpret them will make it easier to arrive at informed decisions regarding the use of hazardous substances.

Knowing how your workplace affects the environment and how you can prevent environmental damage from your work creates a more eco-friendly workplace. Topics in this program include Climate Change, Emissions, Waste management and Pollution.

The CLP regulation aims to provide a logical and comprehensive approach to defining Physical, Health, and Environmental hazards of chemicals. It is true that there are many substances used in the workplace that are potentially hazardous to health BUT, it is also true that it is possible to work will all of these substances in a safe manner.
