FACT SHEET What Are Safety Data Sheets? OregonOSHA FACT SHEET What are safety data sheets? Safety data sheets (SDS) are detailed information bulletins prepared by the manufacturer or importer of a chemical that describes the physical and chemical properties, physical and health hazards, routes of exposure, precautions for safe handling and use, emergency and first-aid procedures, and control measures. General Industry Information on safety data sheets aid in the selection of safe products and helps prepare employers and employees to respond effectively to daily exposure situations as well as to emergency situations. Subdivision 2/Z 1910.1200 Employer responsibilities When are safety data sheets required? Employers must ensure that each employee has Oregon OSHA looks at the usage of materials in Agriculture a basic knowledge of how to find information a workplace in two ways: consumer usage and on safety data sheets and how to properly occupational usage.

  • GUIDELINE Safety Data Sheets and Pathogen Safety Data Sheets
    GUIDELINE UBC-RMS-OHS-GDL-14-001 Department of Risk Management Services Effective date: January 2, 2014 Review date: November 27, 2017 www.rms.ubc.ca Supersedes: Previous version Safety Data Sheets and Pathogen Safety Data Sheets 1. SCOPE This guideline provides directions for Regulatory and Best Practices for the use of Safety Data Sheets and Pathogen Safety Data Sheets (SDS and PSDS). It applies to all UBC employees working with chemicals and/or pathogens. 2. PURPOSE Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) and Pathogen Safety Data Sheets (PSDSs) are essential components in ensuring occupational health and safety within potentially hazardous environments. 3. BACKGROUND Under the new Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS 2015) the formerly known Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) became the Safety Data Sheet. The change is happening in several phases. After December 1, 2018, WHMIS 2015 will be the only system in use. Until then, employers are allowed in the workplace both MSDSs and SDSs. Important information regarding chemical, physiochemical, hazard/toxicity, required personal protective equipment, etc. are found on the SDS. In particular, WHMIS-related information will be found on the label of the agent of concern, with additional and more comprehensive information detailed in the SDS. Accordingly, the SDS for any new chemical, chemical mixture, or unknown agent should be fully reviewed prior to working with it. It is also important to note that suppliers are required to provide a SDS for each reagent (may be restricted to first time ordering). Similarly, Pathogen Safety Data Sheets (PSDSs) provide critical information regarding infectious materials, including the mode of transmission, disease symptoms, decontamination methods, PPE, and containment requirements.

  • Five Keys to Safer Food Manual
    FIVE KEYS TO SAFER FOOD MANUAL DEPARTMENT OF FOOD SAFETY, ZOONOSES AND FOODBORNE DISEASES FIVE KEYS TO SAFER FOOD MANUAL DEPARTMENT OF FOOD SAFETY, ZOONOSES AND FOODBORNE DISEASES INTRODUCTION Food safety is a significant public health issue nsafe food has been a human health problem since history was first recorded, and many food safety Uproblems encountered today are not new. Although governments all over the world are doing their best to improve the safety of the food supply, the occurrence of foodborne disease remains a significant health issue in both developed and developing countries. It has been estimated that each year 1.8 million people die as a result of diarrhoeal diseases and most of these cases can be attributed to contaminated food or water. Proper food preparation can prevent most foodborne diseases. More than 200 known diseases are transmitted through food.1 The World Health Organization (WHO) has long been aware of the need to educate food handlers about their responsibilities for food safety. In the early 1990s, WHO developed the Ten Golden Rules for Safe Food Preparation, which were widely translated and reproduced. However, it became obvious that something simpler and more generally applicable was needed. After nearly a year of consultation with food safety expertsandriskcommunicators, WHOintroducedtheFive KeystoSaferFoodposterin2001.TheFive Keys toSaferFoodposterincorporatesallthemessagesoftheTen Golden Rules for Safe Food Preparation under simpler headings that are more easily remembered and also provides more details on the reasoning behind the suggested measures. The Five Keys to Safer Food Poster The core messages of the Five Keys to Safer Food are: (1) keep clean; (2) separate raw and cooked; (3) cook thoroughly; (4) keep food at safe temperatures; and (5) use safe water and raw materials.

  • What Exactly Is Patient Safety?
    What Exactly Is Patient Safety? Linda Emanuel, MD, PhD; Don Berwick, MD, MPP; James Conway, MS; John Combes, MD; Martin Hatlie, JD; Lucian Leape, MD; James Reason, PhD; Paul Schyve, MD; Charles Vincent, MPhil, PhD; Merrilyn Walton, PhD Abstract We articulate an intellectual history and a definition, description, and model of patient safety. We define patient safety as a discipline in the health care professions that applies safety science methods toward the goal of achieving a trustworthy system of health care delivery. We also define patient safety as an attribute of health care systems that minimizes the incidence and impact of adverse events and maximizes recovery from such events. Our description includes: why the field of patient safety exists (the high prevalence of avoidable adverse events); its nature; its essential focus of action (the microsystem); how patient safety works (e.g., high- reliability design, use of safety sciences, methods for causing change, including cultural change); and who its practitioners are (i.e., all health care workers, patients, and advocates). Our simple and overarching model identifies four domains of patient safety (recipients of care, providers, therapeutics, and methods) and the elements that fall within the domains. Eleven of these elements are described in this paper. Introduction A defining realization of the 1990s was that, despite all the known power of modern medicine to cure and ameliorate illness, hospitals were not safe places for healing. Instead, they were places fraught with risk of patient harm. One important response to this realization has been the growth of interest in patient safety. It is increasingly clear that patient safety has become a discipline, complete with an integrated body of knowledge and expertise, and that it has the potential to revolutionize health care, perhaps as radically as molecular biology once dramatically increased the therapeutic power in medicine.

  • Safety and Health Injury Prevention Sheets (SHIPS)
    Occupational Safety and Health Administration S AFETY and H EALTH I NJURY P REVENTION S HEETS Working with the Shipyard Industry Occupational Safety and Health Shipbuilding,Ship Repair Administration and Ship Breaking Introduction : Working with the ShipyardShipyard IndustrIndustryy Shipyards operating in the United States often do not have the benefit of full-time, on-board safety and health specialists. Although help is available from workers’ compensation loss control consultants, or state consultation services, their consultants are not always familiar with the unique aspects and hazards of shipyard operations. To meet this need and help prevent injuries, the shipyard community and OSHA have jointly developed Safety and Health Injury Prevention Sheets (SHIPS). Representatives of large and small shipyards around the country assisted OSHA in identifying the most frequent hazards and injuries in shipbuilding and ship repair work. Designed for both employers and workers, SHIPS presents information on hazard awareness and controls in a user-friendly format. Pictures from actual shipyards depict hazards and recommended solutions. The time-tested solutions presented are those the shipyard community has found to be most effective in reducing or eliminating shipyard injuries. The goal of SHIPS is to reduce or eliminate unsafe work practices by increasing employer and worker awareness of safety and health hazards. The first SHIPS presented is Hot Work-Welding, Cutting and Brazing. Some of the material may need to be adapted to different size shipyards and different local conditions. We hope that you will find the information helpful in setting up a plan to make your shipyard a safer and more healthful place to work.
