		<description><![CDATA[OSHA’s revision of the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) to align with GHS is likely only a few weeks away (four to eight weeks by many estimates). And as the date approaches, there is a disquieting position being taken by some smaller workplaces that use chemicals — it’s the idea that they are “so small” they do not have to “worry” about changes to OSHA’s HazCom standard. It’s a false conclusion, providing a false security, which can lead to a dangerous end. This article will start by addressing that “too small to worry” mindset and end with two stories about hazard compliance from the past week that everyone should read.

The NEP is specifically targeting worker protection against highly hazardous chemical releases. The new National NEP is essentially an upgrade of a 2009 pilot NEP that targeted chemical facilities in several regions.]]></description>

It would be the last major hurdle before a final rule on a revised HCS can be published. Because OMB must review the rule within 90 days, OMB approval of a revised Hazard Communication Standard could be less than 90 days away.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Countries that adopt GHS usually create new compliance obligations for their organizations or businesses that manufacture, import, store or distribute chemical products. This is true in the United States where OSHA is preparing to publish a final rule aligning the Hazard Communication Standard with GHS. Once adopted, chemical manufacturers, importers and distributors will need to reclassify their hazardous chemicals to conform to GHS definitions. Additionally, they will have to produce new MSDSs and labels to reflect the reclassification and to fit the GHS compliant safety data sheet format.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OSHA will be hosting it's summer Regulatory Agenda Web Chat on Monday, July 11 from 2:30-3:30 p.m. EDT. You can participate live by visiting http://www.dol.gov/regulations/chat-osha-201107.htm. Among the major initiatives OSHA is expected to discuss on Monday is the pending GHS adoption. OSHA announced earlier this year that it intended to publish a final rule on revising the current Hazard Communication Standard to align with GHS in August. Based on discussions MSDSonline has had with people close to the ground, there is a strong possibility that GHS adoption will be "delayed" beyond September 2011.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[GHS, the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals, is coming. It’s something we’ve known theoretically for many years. But because the wheels of government regulatory adoption move slowly, there hasn’t been much haste on the part of the greater safety community to prepare for its arrival. Those days are over. GHS is coming…and it’s coming soon.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OSHA is planning on publishing a final rule in August that will align the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). It’s not clear what affect (if any) that alignment will have on the NFPA and HMIS chemical hazard rating and labelling systems. One issue of concern is that under GHS, numbers are used to rank hazards based upon their seriousness. ]]></description>
