OSHA created the Hazard
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
Communication Standard to
help ensure worker safety
when working with hazardous
chemicals.
In 2012 OSHA revised the
HazCom Standard to be
consistent with the Globally
Harmonized System (GHS)
 As you can see, by the end of
this school year, you will be
seeing Labeling and Safety
Data Sheets in your buildings
that will be in compliance with
the new Law.
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
Globally Harmonized System
AKA - GHS
 Will have changes to;
 Hazard Classification’s
 Labels
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
 Pictograms
 Safety Data Sheets (formally MSDS)
 Information and Training
 Hazard Classification:
 Provides specific criteria for
classification of health and physical
hazards, as well as classification of
mixtures
 Signal Words include;
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
 Labels:
 Chemical manufacturers and
importers will be required to provide
a label that includes a harmonized
signal word, pictogram, and hazard
statement for each hazard class and
category.
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
Precautionary statements
must also be provided.
 Safety Data Sheets:
 Will now have a specified 16-section
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
format
 The 16 Section format is basically
the ANSI Format
 The OSHA Format was only 8 Sections
and previously was the MINIMUM
REQUIRED INFO.
 Sections 11-15 Are not enforced by
OSHA but are still important.
 These discuss Aquatic toxicity, Soil
resilience and other topics governed
by different agencies.
At this time, NJ PEOSH
NOT adopted the
HAS
GHS as
Law.
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
OSHA has made Education
and Training mandatory for
PRIVATE employees ONLY.
Even though NJ has not
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
adopted the GHS, you will
start seeing products that
will have labels and Safety
Data Sheets that will be in
compliance with the Law.
You will now have the
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
knowledge of what the GHS
dictates and be able to
understand the new Law
and be in a better position
to protect yourself and
occupants of your school
building.
 Information and Training:
 The GHS does not address
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
training.
 However, the proposed HCS will
require that workers are trained
within two years of the
publication of the final rule to
facilitate recognition and
understanding of the new labels
and safety data sheets.
A single word used to
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
indicate the relative
level of severity of
hazard and alert the
reader to a potential
hazard on the label.
The signal words used
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
are “Danger" and
“Warning."
"Danger" is used for
the more severe hazards,
while “Warning" is
used for less severe
hazards.
A symbol plus other
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
graphic elements,
such as a border,
background pattern,
or color that is
intended to convey
specific information
about the hazards of a
chemical.
Each pictogram
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
consists of a different
symbol on a white
background within a
red square frame set
on a point (i.e., a red
diamond).

A statement
NJSBGA

assigned to a hazard
class and category
that describes the
nature of the
hazard(s) of a
chemical, including,
where appropriate,
the degree of hazard.
A phrase that describes
recommended measures
to minimize or prevent
adverse effects resulting
from exposure to a
hazardous chemical;
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
Or improper storage or
handling of a hazardous
chemical
 The name, address and
telephone number of the
manufacturer or supplier
of the substance or
mixture should be
provided on the label.

Employees Must:
 Read labels and SDSs
 Follow Employer Instructions &

 Participate in Training
The Act Section 34:6A-33
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
states:
“Every employer shall
provide each of his
employees with employment
and a place of employment
which are free from
recognized hazards which
may cause serious injury,
physical harm or death to his
employees”.
 N.J.S.A. 34:6A-34 states:
 “Each employee shall comply with
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
occupational safety and health
standards and all regulations
promulgated under this Act which are
applicable to his own actions and
conduct.”
 The Act does not provide for the
issuance of citations or the proposal
of penalties against employees.
 Employers are responsible for
employee compliance with the
standards.
 The CSHO is expected to obtain information
to ascertain whether the employer is
exercising appropriate oversight of the
workplace to ensure compliance with the Act.
 Concerted refusals by employees to comply
will not ordinarily bar the issuance of a
citation where the employer has failed to
exercise its authority to adequately supervise
employees, including taking appropriate
disciplinary action.
NJSBGA

“Serious” violation
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
means a hazard, violation
or condition evidencing
a substantial probability
that death of serious
physical harm could
result.

physical harm include, but are not
limited, to:
 Cancer;
 Respiratory illnesses (silicosis,
asbestosis);
 Hearing impairment;
 Central nervous system
impairment;

 Poisoning.
N.J.S.A 34:6A-41 provides the
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
Commissioner of Labor with
the statutory authority to
propose civil penalties for
violations of the Act.
Civil penalties advance the
purposes of the Act by
encouraging compliance and
deterring violations.
 Penalty amounts PEOSH issues with
citation(s).
 N.J.S.A 34:6A-41(d) provides the
following:
1. If the time for compliance with an order of the
NJSBGA
APPROVED
TRAINING
Commissioner lapses, and the employer has not
made a good faith to comply, a civil administrative
penalty of up to $7,000 per day for each violation
shall be imposed
2. Any employer who willfully, or repeatedly violates the
requirements of this section or any standard, rule,
order or regulation promulgated under the Act shall
be assessed a civil administrative penalty of up to
$70,000 for each violation,
3. If the violation is of a continuing nature, each day
during which it continues after the date given for
compliance in accordance with the order of the
commissioner shall constitute an additional separate
and distinct offense.
