GHS Safety Videos

Importance of GHS Safety Training in the Workplace

The Globally Harmonized System (GHS) gives every chemical label and safety data sheet the same structure, so workers can understand a chemical’s hazards no matter who made it. Under OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard, labels must show a product identifier, signal word, hazard statements, pictograms, precautionary statements and supplier information, and safety data sheets follow a standard 16-section format. Our GHS safety training videos teach employees how to read both quickly and act on what they find.

GHS Container Labels explains each label element and the GHS hazard pictograms, and GHS Safety Data Sheets explains the role safety data sheets play in hazard communication and why they can be a life-saving resource. Both are available for specific settings, including industrial and construction environments, healthcare and the laboratory. Employers who want the complete set can choose the GHS Regulatory Compliance Package, and hazardous waste crews have Safety Data Sheets in HAZWOPER Environments. For the program requirements behind labels and SDSs, see our hazard communication training.

The construction and industrial versions, the compliance package and the HAZWOPER course are available in English and Spanish, and the other GHS training videos in English. Deliver them through Unlimited Interactive Online Training, review them with work groups using Unlimited Safety Video Streaming, or order safety DVDs and USBs.
