| The Globally Harmonized System (GHS) is a hot topic of discussion, both domestically and internationally. While GHS has historically focused on the international community, with early adoption by the European Union and Japan, the GHS trend is moving west and will definitely be in the spotlight in the U.S. in 2012. GHS has already had and will continue to have profound effects on chemical data management initiatives, both for companies that must author and publish material safety data sheets (MSDS) for their chemical products, as well as those companies that must manage (M)SDS and related chemical data for onsite chemical inventories. |
