Hazard classification and toxicology (GHS)
CSP video lesson, 5:48. CSP Domain 6: Occupational Health and Applied Science
Narrated with an AI-generated voice. The script is AI-drafted from the cited rules and fact-checked against them.
Who classifies chemical hazards under HazCom, what evidence they must consider, how mixtures are classified, and which chemicals fall outside the standard. A CSP exam review of 1910.1200.
Included with every CSP pass, with captions, chapters and the full transcript. Every rule and number is cited on screen to its primary source.
What this lesson covers
In this lesson, you'll learn to: identify who must classify a chemical, state what evidence classification relies on, apply the mixture rule and its exception, and sort exempt from covered chemicals. Under HazCom, classification starts with the people who make or import the chemical. Chemical manufacturers and importers must evaluate and classify the chemicals they produce or import.
