IMPORTANT PROVISIONS OF THE HCS Employers using hazardous chemicals have four main requirements: ensuring the proper chemical labeling ; providing safety data sheets ; training employees ; and creating a written hazard communication program.

The Hazard Communication Standard (HCS), 29 CFR 1910.1200 (h), requires all employers to provide information and training to their employees about the hazardous chemicals to which they may be exposed at the time of their initial assignment and whenever a new hazard is introduced into their work area.

The Hazard Communication Standard (HCS), 29 CFR 1910.1200 (h), requires all employers to provide information and training to their employees about the hazardous chemicals to which they may be exposed at the time of their initial assignment and whenever a new hazard is introduced into their work area.

These are the Five elements of the Hazard Communication Standard. They are: Chemical Inventory, Written Program, Labels, Material Safety Data Sheets, and Training.

IMPORTANT PROVISIONS OF THE HCS Employers using hazardous chemicals have four main requirements: ensuring the proper chemical labeling ; providing safety data sheets ; training employees ; and creating a written hazard communication program.

The program must include labels on containers of hazardous chemicals, safety data sheets (SDSs) for hazardous chemicals, and training for workers. Each employer must also describe in a written program how it will meet the requirements of the HCS in each of these areas.

Under paragraph (g)(1), chemical manufacturers and importers must develop or obtain SDSs for the products they produce or import. In the scenario you raise where the manufacturer has gone out of business, the employer's responsibility is to maintain the MSDS for that product, not to create a new SDS.
