How does the MSDS “Material Safety Data Sheet” authoring system work?

How does the MSDS “Material Safety Data Sheet” authoring system work?

Authoring Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) can often be an arduous task which unfortunately many companies face. A company might have a limited software budget, limited amount of MSDS/SDSs to author on a yearly basis, lack of time or expertise, or even overburdened Environmental Health and Safety staff. All of these can contribute to the MSDS authoring obstacles that many companies face. To simplify the process of MSDS authoring, the best route a chemical company can take is to get in touch with a “Chemical Regulatory Compliance Company”.

In order for the regulatory company to be able to author an MSDS you must provide the following items and specifications:

1.What country do you want your MSDS to be compliant in? 2.In what language do you need the MSDS authored in? 3.Full formulation of the product is required in order to analyze the composite in detail: a.Name of each component in the formulation b.CAS Number of each component c.Percentage range for each component 4.Existing MSDS or Technical Data Sheet (if available) that contains any physical/chemical specs, such as pH, flammability, flashpoint, color, odor, etc.

Once the MSDS is fully authored, the supplier of the chemical product must ensure the following:

1.The person to which the product is being sold has full access to the correct MSDS at the time of sale. 2.The MSDS must be submitted to the purchaser in the correct official language of the jurisdiction. If this is not specified to the supplier, then the language in which communication has been transferred between the supplier and purchaser is acceptable. If more than one language is requested, the supplier must comply with the demands of the purchaser. This may result in multiple MSDS’s, one for each official language within the jurisdiction. 3.The MSDS, if submitted over the internet, must be in a fully readable manner when downloaded by the purchaser. There must not be any pages or sections missing from the MSDS, and it must be in the same complete and final form as any paper copy of the same MSDS. 4.The exchange or download of the MSDS by the purchaser must take place at the time of sale of the chemical product.

Once all of the above requirements have been met by the supplier, the purchaser can give a written consent that all of the documentations have been received at the time of perches.

What “Cleaning Companies” need to know about MSDSs “Material Safety Data Sheets”?

What “Cleaning Companies” need to know about MSDSs “Material Safety Data Sheets”?

In order for a “Cleaning Company” to do its job, chemical products must always be involved.

However, no matter how many or how few chemicals you use, it is important that you have the MSDS for each cleaning product. One should note that an MSDS is not only important to have on hand for safety reasons but it is also a WHMIS “Workplace Hazardous Material Information System” requirement. These sheets must be available to employees; in fact, an employee can refuse to Work with a product if not shown the product’s MSDS.

If you are not sure where to get an MSDS it can be obtained from the manufacturer or supplier of that specific product. If your supplies come from a janitorial supplies distributor they will either have the MSDS or be able to get if from a janitorial suppliers distributor, or the main manufacturer. If you buy supplies from a big box store or over the Internet, the supplier might not have the MSDS for the product. In this case, you will have to get it from the manufacturer or you may be able to search for it on the Internet.

Employers should carefully read over the product’s MSDS before using it and share the information with employees. Invest some time into learning product properties, as it can protect your employees, and keep your cleaning company out of trouble in case of a spill or accident.

These are the main details you should look out for and pay close attention to while reading an MSDS:

1.Hazards Identification

2.Composition/Information on Ingredients

3.Fire Fighting Measures

4.Accidental Release Measures

5.Handling and Storage

6.Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

7.Physical and Chemical Properties

8.Stability and Reactivity

9.Toxicology Information

10.Ecological Information

11.Disposal Considerations

All of the above listed points are the most important facts a “Cleaning Company” needs to look out for in order to keep its employees, company, and the environment safe and secure.

Branding Lessons: Build School Culture and Identity with A BRAND

Branding Lessons: Build School Culture and Identity with A BRAND

You’re an educator and you are starting to think about branding. Of course, you can’t help but do this. When I am asked in business settings about my ability to work within the business community, since my perspective is informed by education, I simply smile and say…”I’ve been in the business sales all my life. I’ve sold “education” to a diverse marketplace: students, teachers, parents, administrators, school board members and the community.”

So today, with my sales perspective, I’m traveling the country speaking to educators about the common ground of educators and business people. The ground of selling and living a BRAND for ROI in education.

Let’s capture one Branding definition to work with. Branding is a total experience for the user that is based on relationship. It’s more than a logo or a tagline.

If we lead with that principle, then as educators, we should feel a good fit. Education is about building relationships. Educators work hard to do honor that, and have their own tools that make this harmony of relationship building happen everyday in schools. SO with that in mind, can a school culture be created through strategic understanding and a champaign to advance a brand? Can this result in brand loyalty among students, teachers, parents, administrators, board members and the community?

To define what education is today is as challenging as defining what a brand is. There are many ways people try to define both, and branding is in essence solid and changing at the same time. That is true for education as well.

The way to make connections right off the bat is through CULTURE. Branding tenets that are from Madison Avenue’s hallowed halls are perfect tools to develop language and attitude for building CULTURE across the diverse market for education. The beginning of the work lies in the understanding that branding is based in an implied promise. In schools, the promise is achievement. Savvy principals today can be Madmen…or women leaders by applying Madison Avenue tools to include branding, some marketing and a dash of social media to create culture that feeds a loyalty to the organization. Madman Principles? They work. And you’d be crazy not to try.

Online College Degrees the New Requirement in the Workplace

Online College Degrees the New Requirement in the Workplace

It seems that more and more people these days are going online to attain the education that they need to excel in life. Used to be, that all you needed to make it in life was common sense and a desire to succeed. These days however there is a new trend emerging, that of the college degree employee.

In years past you had to miss work in an effort to get a college degree in an effort to make it in the workplace. However with the arrival of the Internet getting a college degree is as easy as ordering your favorite pizza. This article is designed to give you an overview of the world of online degrees and aid you in the decision that you need to make when selecting a college.

One thing that you need to keep in mind is that these days adult students make up half of the students that are going online to attain their degree. More schools as of late are considering the adult students when they design their class offerings as well as the schedule of those classes. Most online classes today can be taken in the evening after you have got home and spent some time with your family. One thing that many employees need to consider is that these days many employers will compensate an employee if they attend a higher learning institute, to further their education. The simple fact is this having a degree is no longer a luxury it is more of a necessity that many people need to consider if they want to advance in their job.

Many of the bigger colleges offer a distance learning option that allows students to earn the same degree that they would if they attended class on campus. People today live in a minute by minute life and are constantly on the go. Online college degrees offer them the convince of getting their college degree in their own time that is easy for them to find the time.

No matter if you are just starting out or have been in the workplace for years, an online college degree will carry you farther in the world than if you are in the same job without a degree. When you are looking at a school there are a few things that you need to keep in mind. First find out if they offer financial aid, if they do then you will want to make sure that you qualify before you go to get signed up for a bunch of classes you won’t be able to pay for. Second research the school and make sure that it is a school that has a solid history and will not be here today and gone the next with your money. The last thing that you need to make sure of is that the degree you receive is actual worth the paper it is printed on. The last thing that you want to do is pay for a degree to find out that it has more value as a piece of toilet paper.
