Your Duty in Relation to Hazardous Chemicals

Since January 2017, the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) has been adopted by Safe Work Australia as the basis for classification, safety data sheets and labels of chemicals and mixtures. You have specific duties under the model WHS Regulations and OHS regulations to manage the risks to health and safety associated with using, handling, generating and storing hazardous chemicals at your workplace. Failure to do so is a breach of the law.

Definition

OHS regulations refer to Hazardous Substances & Dangerous Goods whilst the model WHS regulations combine them together under the name of Hazardous Chemicals. Hazardous substances are defined in terms of their direct health effects on people whereas dangerous goods are defined by their physical and chemical properties. Combined, and known as Hazardous Chemicals, they are substances, mixtures and articles that can pose a significant risk to health and safety if not managed correctly.
