Hazard Communication and GHS (OSHA HCS)
Awareness training aligned with the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) and its construction counterpart, for anyone who handles or works near hazardous chemicals in US workplaces and for supervisors who run the written program. Learn how the HCS adopts the GHS, how hazards are classified, how to read labels, pictograms and the 16-section safety data sheet, and what the written program, chemical inventory and training must contain. It is not an OSHA Outreach (10-hour or 30-hour) course, issues no DOL or OSHA card, and does not replace the site-specific training your employer must give.
