OSHA HazCom 2012 SDS access EPA TSCA inventory screening GHS-aligned workplace labels

Managing chemicals in the United States centers on the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200), which requires a current safety data sheet for every hazardous chemical, GHS-aligned labels, and employee access to that information at all times. Substances are also subject to the EPA Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), which governs which chemicals may be manufactured, imported, or processed. NextSDS gives US operators one platform to keep every SDS current and accessible, screen the inventory against the TSCA list, and produce workplace labels that follow the GHS building blocks OSHA has adopted.

Key Regulations

Which regulations apply in the US?

OSHA HazCom (29 CFR 1910.1200)

The Hazard Communication Standard mandates standardized labels, 16-section safety data sheets, and worker training for hazardous chemicals. NextSDS keeps every SDS current and accessible on every shift.

EPA TSCA

The Toxic Substances Control Act lets the EPA review new chemicals and evaluate existing ones. NextSDS screens your inventory against the TSCA list and flags significant new use rules and restrictions.

GHS-aligned labelling

OSHA HazCom adopts the GHS building blocks for classification and labelling. NextSDS generates workplace and secondary container labels with the correct pictograms, signal words, and hazard statements.

Got questions? We've got answers! The essential info about making chemical safety simple and accessible.

How does NextSDS help with OSHA HazCom compliance?

NextSDS keeps you aligned with the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200). The platform maintains a complete, current safety data sheet for every hazardous chemical in your workplace, ensures each SDS follows the required 16-section GHS format, and makes documents accessible to employees during every work shift, which is a core HazCom requirement.

Does NextSDS support EPA TSCA obligations?

Yes. Substances in your inventory are screened against the TSCA Chemical Substance Inventory so you can confirm the chemicals you manufacture, import, or process are listed. You receive alerts on significant new use rules and restrictions, helping you track EPA actions that affect substances already in your operations.

Are NextSDS labels aligned with GHS in the US?

US HazCom labels follow the GHS building blocks adopted by OSHA: product identifier, signal word, hazard statements, precautionary statements, pictograms, and supplier information. NextSDS generates workplace and secondary container labels with these elements and simplified safety cards workers can reach by QR code at the point of use.

Can NextSDS manage multiple US sites and states?

Yes. Create location-specific chemical registers for each facility, so every site maintains its own hazardous chemical inventory while you keep a consolidated national view. This supports HazCom's written program and inventory requirements and simplifies reporting across operations spread over several states.
