OSHA's final compliance date for the revised Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) is June 1st, 2016. This is the date by which OSHA says employers must be in complete compliance - update alternative workplace labeling and hazard communication program as necessary, and provide additional employee training for newly identified physical or health hazards.

So what does it really mean to you, the employer?

How do you identify new hazards that you haven't had to label or train on previously? What about in-plant labeling? What changes are required? You do HazCom training, but what additional training might be required based upon new information you discover? And what is expected for training temporary employees, new hires, and transfers.

Do you know what you are expected to do if a supplier hasn't sent you an updated SDS or ships you containers without an updated label? Or, what are your responsibilities if you have older containers and SDSs in your facility for product that you haven't order in a while? Must you re-label containers? Ask suppliers for updated SDSs? Your written HazCom plan must be current as well. What impact does this all have on your written plan?

Join us for the webcast, "Hazard Communication – The Final Step," where we will address these and any other questions that you may have about HazCom and the final implementation date.
