SDS vs. MSDS: What’s Changed in the Last Decade?

The past ten years have seen significant changes in the manner in which workplace safety is monitored. The worldwide standard for Safety Data Sheets (SDS) replaces the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). This is no minor change, and it was driven by the Globally Harmonized System, a global 16-section system that offers new, clean language and easily interpreted pictograms that transcend languages. Throughout the US, from busy manufacturing plants to quiet research facilities, these new MSDS's are being added in conjunction with the old ones, and they now provide clarity and consistency of information on a variety of topics, from safety precautions to emergency response, eliminating the confusion of previous, proprietary MSDS formats. In the final analysis, this significant change has made hazard communication much simpler, providing employees and employers alike with better safety information than ever before. #chemicalengineering #cloudsds #sdsmanagement
