An MSDS should not be an afterthought - it is a key document to communicate health and safety concerts to employees and customers and is required for any potentially hazardous chemical in the workplace. An MSDS must be both technically accurate and comprehensible to employees.
Hazard communication is an important part to chemical stewardship, but one that is often taken for granted. In a recent study, more than 50% of MSDSs were found to contain inaccurate information. An inaccurate MSDS can potentially leave your company open to liability. In addition, violations of hazard communications standards is one of the most frequently cited OSHA violations, with approximately 7000 citations issued annually.
