KMK offers transition plan consulting for companies that would benefit from GHS Compliance.
Many predictions have been made as to when GHS would be adopted in North America, and it seems that 2012 has proven to be an important year. Europe and other areas of the world have already adopted GHS, and based upon their experiences, we feel there will be a 3 year period for companies to completely transition to GHS. Companies need to prepare for the adoption of GHS in North America by taking stock of their existing compliance tools and associated chemical regulatory information–to ensure they address the proposed new requirements.
Some important steps to GHS Compliance
- Re-evaluation of how substances and mixtures are classified under GHS,
- Updating and re-issuing of all regulated documents, such as safety data sheets, MSDS and labels,
- Training staff on new classifications and symbols.
