GHS Container Labels

This course on GHS Container Labels discusses how the Globally Harmonized System standardizes the information workers have access to and what they can expect to see on a GHS label. When a worker is exposed to a hazardous material, the last thing they need is to wait while their coworkers scramble to find the information they need to help them. With GHS container labels, workers can identify a material and its hazards at a glance. Areas covered in the course include the goals of hazard communication, the benefits of the GHS system, GHS pictograms, text elements of GHS labels, and more.
