OSHACOMPLIANT

LABEL

ACUTE TOXICITY

Refers to those adverse effects occurring following oral or dermal administrationof a single dose of a substance, or multiple doses given within 24 hours, or an inhalation exposure of 4 hours

IDENTIFICATION

Name of productSupplier

Name Address

SECONDARY LABELS

Secondary labels are permittedMust be consistent with HAZCOM StandardsNo conflicting warnings or pictogramsCan use signs or placards in place of labels on

stationary containersEmployers can use GHS compliant labels

SAFETY DATA SHEETS

Provide detailed health & safety information & precautions for handling hazardous substances, including emergency first aid procedures

(cell phone) or CHEMTREC

SECTION 4FIRST AID MEASURES

Value that represents the acidity or alkalinity of a water solution Pure water has a pH of 7 A pH of value below indicates an acid solution (a pH of 1 is extremely acidic)A pH above 7 indicates an alkaline solution (a pH of 14 is extremely alkaline)Acids and alkalis (bases) are commonly refereed to as corrosive materials

BOILING POINT

Temperature at which a liquid changes its phase to a vapor or gas

The temperature where the pressure of the liquid equals atmospheric pressureExamples

Lead 3164 Deg FXylene 292 Deg FOxygen -297 Deg F

FLAMMABILITY

Flammability or inflammability is the ease with which a substance will ignite, causing fire

or combustionMaterials will ignite at temperatures commonly

encountered are considered flammable, with various specific definitions giving a temperature requirement

RELATIVE DENSITY(SPECIFIC GRAVITY)

The Relative Density of a gas, liquid, or solid relates to its weight of an equal amount of water or air

ExamplesSolids Liquids GasesWater 1.0 Water 1.0 Air 1.0Lead 11.34Mercury 13.56 Oxygen 1.11Iron 7.86 Gasoline 0.7 Helium 0.4
