OSHA Form 174 — Material Safety
Data Sheet (MSDS):
Aid for Complying with OSHA's Hazard Communication Rules
Federal law dictates that employers must provide information
to their employees about hazardous materials and chemicals that
employees may be exposed to in the workplace. The vehicle for
that information is the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). While
there is no specified format for the MSDS, OSHA has developed a
non-mandatory format, OSHA Form 174, which may be used by
chemical manufacturers and importers to comply with OSHA's
Hazard Communication Standard. You are entitled to receive a
data sheet from your supplier.
Here's a blank OSHA Form 174 that shows you what kind of
information you need to get from your suppliers and to convey to
your employees regarding regarding the chemicals, including the
identity, characteristics, and hazard data.
The file is in rich text format (RTF) that is suitable for use
with most word processing programs used in the Windows
environment. However, the file includes Word 6.0/7.0 tables,
which may not be rendered properly by some word processing
programs.
Note that if workers may be exposed to hazardous materials in
your workplace, you are required by OSHA to have a written
hazard communication program. If, in addition to OSHA Form 174,
you would also like a model of such a program that you can
customize for your workplace, return to the list of Worker
Safety documents and choose "Hazard Communication Program
Package." The package consists of the model program and Form
174. |
