CHST Domain 4: Leadership, Communication, and Training
A coatings contractor sends a crew to three different job sites during a single shift. The company keeps all safety data sheets (SDSs) at its main shop. The office is staffed all shift, and the crew leader's phone can reach it immediately. Staff can send any SDS to the crew within minutes, and the crew has been told how to request one in an emergency. Which statement best describes whether this arrangement meets the Hazard Communication standard?
Show answer and source: 29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(9)
Answer: C. It complies, since the crew can get any SDS at once in an emergency.
OSHA's HazCom rule, 29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(9), lets SDSs be kept at the primary workplace when employees travel between workplaces during a shift, as long as they can immediately obtain the information in an emergency. C matches. A, B and D add conditions that the rule does not impose.
Answer C comes from
29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(9)(opens ecfr.gov in a new tab)“Where employees must travel between workplaces during a workshift, i.e., their work is carried out at more than one geographical location, the safety data sheets may be kept at the primary workplace facility. In this situation, the employer shall ensure that employees can immediately obtain the required information in an emergency.”
