There are hundreds of thousands of chemicals found in workplaces.  Some of these are relatively safe and others are extremely dangerous.  Hazard Communication Safety Training will introduce employees to the "Right-To-Know" regulations and provide training on the various types of chemicals found in workplace environments.

OSHA's Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) requires the development and dissemination of such information: All employers with hazardous chemicals in their workplaces must have labels and MSDSs for their exposed workers, and train them to handle the chemicals appropriately.

The video is 17 minutes and addresses the major areas needed to comply with the standard, including:

• Components of the OSHA Standard
• To whom the standard applies
• Understanding chemicals:
  • Physical and health hazards
  • Routes of exposure
  • Acute or chronic effects
• MSDS and chemical labels
• Personal Protective Equipment
• Exposure to hazardous chemicals
• Leaks and spills

Included with each video (DVD or VHS) is the printable Leader's Guide on CD, which includes the following:
