GHS Overview

7

GHS is a common and logical approach to defining and classifying chemical hazards and communicate information via the label and Safety Data Sheet.

The GHS is expected to improve protection of human health and the environment: a comprehensive international system to communicate a hazard, providing a framework that is easily recognizable for countries that do not yet have the system, reducing the need for chemical testing and research and facilitate international trade of dangerous chemicals has been tested and is known in general.

Classification of chemical hazard rate is needed in purchasing, production, storage, delivery and it can protect and secure human and environment.

The classification applies to all single compound and Mixtures except use for drugs, cosmetics, food, food additives and pesticide residues in food.

Implementation of GHS are still facing obstacles due to not fully harmonized classification system, similar criteria and labeling both in International as well as domestic, while the purple book from the International guideline UNSCE-GHS also still continue to have revisions and now on 3th revision.
