In this brief video, the speaker alerts employers and safety professionals that a new OSHA deadline for workplaces handling hazardous chemicals is set for November 20, less than three months away. The regulation requires three specific actions: (1) updating container labels to reflect the latest Globally Harmonized System (GHS) hazard classifications, (2) revising the written Hazard Communication (HazCom) program accordingly, and (3) updating employee training to incorporate the new classifications. To help organizations meet these obligations, the speaker offers a free HazCom GHS Employer Compliance Guide, with a download link provided in the video description.
