Los riesgos son universales y los idiomas no. Para mantener a las personas seguras en los centros de trabajo de todo el mundo, se han creado símbolos estandarizados llamados pictogramas para comunicar los riesgos de manera consistente de un centro de trabajo a otro y de un país a otro. Este mini módulo cubre los pictogramas y los riesgos asociados con ellos, tal como se ven en las etiquetas y en las Hojas de datos de seguridad (SDS).
Hazards are universal and languages are not. To keep individuals safe in workplaces throughout the world, regulators are working to standardize symbols, called pictograms, to communicate hazards in a consistent manner from workplace to workplace and from country to country. This mini-module covers pictograms and the hazards associated with them, as encountered on labels and Safety Data Sheets (SDSs).
When you are working with a hazardous chemical, you need to know what it is, what it does and how to stay safe around it. Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) explain the necessary information to keep you safe around hazardous substances. This course explains SDSs to managers and front-line workers in industries and environments that require the use of hazardous substances.
