The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) is a UN-led initiative to synchronise the classification and labelling of chemicals worldwide. The Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) Regulations (EG Reg 1272-2008) are the regulations for the implementation of GHS in Europe.
This GHS/CLP Awareness workshop is aimed at employees who interact with chemicals on a regular basis and are familiar with handling techniques. The practical aspect of the course ensures that staff are comfortable with all the technical aspects of the regulations.
