By Dec. 1, 2013, employers must have trained their workforces on the revised Hazard Communication Standard that was published in the Federal Register in March 2012.
Specifically, workers must be trained on the labeling elements for the Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) that will accompany workplace chemicals under the revised standard. To aid in the educational process, which should begin soon to reach the deadline, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has published a Fact Sheet.
