WHMIS refers to Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System. Since 1988, it has been the communication standard in Canada for hazardous materials in the workplace. The system is comprised of [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] elements such as cautionary labels for containers, provision of material safety data sheets and worker education through WHMIS training programs.
The system involves cooperation from agencies and departments and synchronization. Governments, on a federal, provincial and territorial level, follow standard guidelines. These rules are taught in training courses. The general guidelines ensure that there is no duplication or disorganization, which could happen if each area had separate system requirements.
The program was created by the federal Hazardous Product Act and Controlled Products Regulations, which are managed by the [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] national office for WHMIS. The system is considered the national standard for communication and classification of [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] hazardous materials. It is centered on the right-to-know act that exists [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] in [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] every territory and province of the country.
General guidelines are set through this system, but there are some requirements that vary with jurisdiction and site. Still, the program makes certain that employers are learned in their site-specific requirements and work to fulfill them. The purpose of these rules it to guarantee that controlled products in a workplace are used, stored and handled properly. Labeling is crucial to achieving the goals of this system. Material safety data sheets are also important. The Controlled Products Regulations requires that MSDSs are received or prepared before the product is used or sold in the country. These sheets should be available to all employees. Employees working closely with these hazardous products should be educated and trained with the regulations specific to [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] their worksite.
There are eight WHMIS hazard symbols, each representing a different class. Class A is for compressed gas. Class B is a [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] marker for flammable and combustible material. Class C is designated for oxidizing material. Class D is sectioned of into three classifications. Class D1 is for materials causing immediate and serious toxic effects. Class D2 is for materials causing other toxic effects. Class D3 is for biohazardous, infectious material. Corrosive materials fall under Class E and Class F is for dangerous reactive material. Following training, a worker should be able to recognize all eight symbols.
WHMIS involves many agencies and represents the agreement between major stakeholders. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] The program continues [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] to develop through the open exchange of ideas. The Current Issues Committee, a group linked to this program but with no specific responsibilities, is known for sending recommendations to agencies and departments.
The GHS or Globally Harmonized System of labeling and classification of chemicals [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] requires some changes to the WHMIS. How long of a process this will be depends upon many factors. Implementation dates, guidelines for labels and data sheets and transitions will need to [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] be decided.
Training is important because it guarantees the safety of workers. Hazardous materials that are not handled with precaution can cause injury, illness and in some cases, premature death. WHMIS training and TDG online should prepare employees to work in, [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] sometimes, hazardous working environments.
