OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) requires chemical manufacturers to classify hazards and provide Safety Data Sheets (SDS), and employers to train workers on hazardous chemicals, maintain a written hazard communication program and list of hazardous chemicals. 29 CFR 1910.1200 – Hazard Communication.
21 CFR 117.35 requires that toxic cleaning compounds, sanitizing agents, and pesticide chemicals must be identified, held, and stored in a manner that protects against contamination of food and food-contact surfaces. 21 CFR 117.35 – Sanitary Operations.
Store food contact chemicals separately from cleaning chemicals, keep storage areas locked and access limited to authorized personnel, segregate incompatible chemicals (acids from alkalis, chlorine from acids), ensure proper ventilation, and maintain a chemical inventory with Safety Data Sheets. Safe Chemical Handling and Storage – Food Safety Magazine.
The Globally Harmonized System standardizes hazard classification, labels, and Safety Data Sheets (SDS) to ensure workers understand chemical hazards regardless of country. Canada’s WHMIS 2015 aligns with GHS and requires supplier labels, SDS, and worker training programs. GHS - CCOHS.
Use only approved containers, follow the prescribed dilution ratio, add chemical to water (never water to chemical unless specified), label all solution containers, and use appropriate PPE. Module 3 covers making chemical dilutions.
Follow the facility’s emergency response plan: evacuate the area if necessary, alert others, use spill kit supplies to contain the spill, and flush exposed skin or eyes with water for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if needed.
See Safe Handling of Chemicals for detailed emergency procedures.
