Welcome to HazCom: Introduction to Hazard Communication & GHS. This is JJ Keller general training plus specific training for the Texas State Aquarium (TSA) on the OSHA standard 1910.1200. One out of every four workers in the U.S. comes into contact with hazardous chemicals while on-the-job. Over 60 million chemical substances have been developed, and are constantly being transported via our streets, highways, and railway systems. The potential for accidents, incidents, and injuries is always present when people work with, or are in the vicinity of, hazardous chemicals. But by knowing and understanding the basic nature of those chemicals and how to safely work with or around them, people can greatly decrease any risk that might be present. This training is designed to help you understand more about chemicals and the methods used to provide you with information about their hazards.
