Safety Data Sheet (SDS) Authoring
What is a safety data sheet (SDS)?
An SDS is a document that provides information about the hazards and safe handling of a chemical product. SDSs are required by law in many countries, and they are an essential tool for employers and workers to protect themselves from the risks posed by hazardous chemicals.
What is the function of a safety data sheet?
The function of an SDS is to provide information about the hazards and safe handling of a chemical product. This information includes:
- The product’s identity and composition
- The product’s physical and chemical properties
- The product’s health and environmental hazards
- The product’s safe handling, storage, and disposal procedures
Who writes a product's SDS?
The manufacturer or importer of a chemical product is responsible for writing the product’s SDS. However, many companies choose to outsource the task of SDS authoring to experienced regulatory experts like GPC Group.
