Amy Vail City of Cadillac Lab Manager/Safety Coordinator

 Review Updates to HazCom

Standard/Labeling and Posting Rules

 Highlight Changes that Affect Staff  Discuss Other MIOSHA Standards Affected  Review Available Resources

 March 11, 1994 (Current Rule)  December 21, 2012 (MIOSHA adoption of

OSHA’s revisions)

• Part 42 (Construction Safety & Health)
• Part 92 (General Industry Safety)
• Part 430 (Occupational Health)
• Act 154 Section 14 (SDS Modifications)

 December 1, 2013 (Compliance begins)

 Align w/ Globally Harmonized System (GHS)

• Common/coherent approach to classify chemicals

 Improve quality/consistency of hazard ID

• Reduce confusion/Increase hazard comprehension
• Facilitate training
• Address literacy problems

 Other

• Reduce trade barriers
• Reduce cost to American businesses

 Manufacturers, Distributors, Importers

• Change SDS info/format
• Change container labeling

 Employers

• SDS
• Container labels

 Employees

• Info in new SDS format
• Pictograms on container labels
• Precautionary/hazard statements

 Purpose  Definitions  Hazard Classification  Labels and Other Forms of Warning  Safety Data Sheets  Employee Information and Training  Effective Dates  Appendices (A-F)

 All hazards are to be classif

ified ied

• Uses a prescriptive “classification” instead of

“performance-oriented” approach

 Physical Hazard  Health Hazard  Environmental Hazard

 Relocated

• Physical hazards now in App. B

 Deleted

• Material safety data sheet

 Revised/New

• Chemical, Hazardous Chemical, Health Hazard,

Mixture, Physical Hazard, Label, Pyrophoric

• Classification, Hazard Category, Hazard Class,

Pictogram, SDS, Substance, Precautionary Statement

 Specific and detailed

• “Classification” v. “determination”

 Identify: hazard class under health, physical and environmental  Categorize: hazard categories (severity)  Inform: place hazard info for each class/category on label and in SDS

• Hazard class has detailed criteria
• No minimum concentration
• Mixture rules specific to each hazard class

 Categories

• 1-4 (Most severe to least)
• Different than other systems
• New hazards

 Simple asphyxiants  Pyrophoric gases  Combustible dust  Hazards not otherwise classified

 Material Safety Data Sheets to Safety Data

Sheets

 Ensure employee training on new SDS and

label elements conducted

 Shipped containers to be labeled with:

• Product Identifier
• Signal Word
• Hazard Statement
• Pictograms
• Precautionary Statements
• Responsible Party

 Danger (more severe)  Warning (less severe)

 Describe hazards associated w/ chemical

• Flammable liquid and vapor
• Causes skin irritation
• May cause cancer

 Describe recommend measures related to:

• Prevention
• Response
• Storage
• Disposal

 Examples

• Wear respiratory protection
• Store in a well ventilated place

 Not a mandate for employers/employees to

follow

 Symbol plus other graphic elements intended

to convey hazards

 MIOSHA adopted 8 or 9  All must have red borders  All must have pictogram (no blanks)

 Skull and Crossbones

• Acute Toxicity (fatal or toxic)

 Exclamation Mark

• Irritant, Skin Sensitizer, Acute Toxicity (harmful),

Narcotic Effects, Respiratory Irritant

 Corrosion

• Skin Corrosion/Burns, Eye Damage, Corrosive to

Metals

 Health Hazard

• Carcinogen, Mutagenicity, Reproductive Toxicity,

Respiratory Sensitizer, Target Organ Toxicity, Aspiration Toxicity

 Exploding Bomb

• Explosives, Self-Reactives, Organic Peroxides

 Flame

• Flammables, Pyrophorics, Self-Heating, Emits

Flammable Gas, Self-Reactives, Organic Peroxides

 Flame Over Circle

• Oxidizers

 Gas Cylinder

• Gases Under Pressure

 Environment (Non-Mandatory)

• Aquatic Toxicity

 Still permitted  Must be consistent w/ new rule  No conflicting hazard warnings/pictograms  May use written materials (signs, placards,

etc.) in lieu of affixing labels to individual stationary process containers

 Employer can use GHS compliant labels (same

as shipping)

 Mandates

• 16 Sections

 MIOSHA will not enforce sections 12-15 (DEQ/EPA will)

• Headings
• Order of information
• What is included under headings

 MSDS to SDS

 Labels on shipped containers/workplace

labels must be explained as well as SDS format

 Workers will have to be trained on format and

content of:

• New labels
• New SDS

 HazCom Training must include:

• Signal Words
• Pictograms
• Hazard classes/categories

 Physical, health, and not otherwise classified

• Labels received on shipped containers
• SDS

 Order/format of info

 Hazardous work in labs  Flammable liquids/combustibles  Process safety management of highly

hazardous chemicals (PSM)

 Hazardous waste and emergency response

(HAZWOPER)

 Methylene Chloride  1,3-Butadiene

 Signage Requirements

• Cadmium
• Lead
• Chromium (VI)
• Asbestos
• Carcinogens
• Inorganic Arsenic
• Benzene
