Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS)

GHS, an acronym for Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, is a system aiming to standardize and harmonize the classification and labeling of chemicals. Although many countries follow regulatory systems for the safe handling and transport of chemicals through labels and safety data sheets, there is no standard approach. So while the formats are similar in different countries, the differences are significant enough to warrant different labeling and safety data sheets for the same product in different markets. With the gradual implementation of the GHS worldwide, countries have consistent and appropriate information on the chemicals they import or produce, and the infrastructure to control chemical exposures and protect people and the environment can be established in a comprehensive manner. This course introduces the GHS and explains how hazards are classified and communicated through the use of labels and safety data sheets.

Pandemics

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) once estimated that if a pandemic virus was to hit the US, approximately 200,000 to 2 million people could possibly die. This was based on models from past pandemics – the Spanish Flu (1918), the Asian Flu (1957), and the Hong Kong Flu (1968). The government further estimated that up to 40% of the workforce could be absent from work at the height of a pandemic wave. The potential impact on the social and economic infrastructure is enormous. When the H1N1 Pandemic of 2009 occurred, CDC estimated there were between 151,000 and 575,400 deaths worldwide in the first year. Since then, advances in science and preparedness have been implemented to prevent outbreaks from reaching pandemic proportions. Great strides have been made in monitoring and detection, risk assessment, prevention and treatment. These advances are outlined in the Department of Health and Human Services Pandemic Influenza Plan. This plan, an update of the 2005 National Strategy for Pandemic Influenza Implementation Plan, outlines the roles and responsibilities of governmental and nongovernmental entities, but clearly indicates that the center of gravity for pandemic response will be at the community level. According to the plan, 'sustaining the operations of critical infrastructure under conditions of pandemic influenza will depend largely on each organization's development and implementation plans for business continuity of operations under conditions of staffing shortages and to protect the health of their workforce.' In other words, it is essential for all institutions and businesses to develop their own pandemic plan. It isn't too early to start planning how you and your organization will respond to the very real threat of a pandemic virus. In fact, there could be a point when it is too late. This course is designed to increase awareness of pandemic threats and to provide information that can be used to form the basis of preparedness and prevention for your organization.This course was developed and reviewed with subject matter support provided by certified subject matter experts and industry professionals.

Safety at Work: A Systematic Approach

Do you ever find yourself wishing you had more control over the way you do your job – especially tasks related to your personal safety and health? Many safety programs are designed and implemented by managers, with the expectation that employees will follow the practices they prescribe. While employee health and safety is paramount, safety programs designed by management may fail to recognize why employees take the risks they do, even though they may have been trained in proper, safe procedures. Systematic approaches to safety at work, such as behavior-based safety, can be used to enhance the safety program organizations have in place – tackling safety issues by involving employees at all levels of the organization – where changes to improve safety are driven by employees on up through management. In this way, the collective experience of employees, like you, drives the change for safer work practices and conditions. This course explores the concept of behavior-based safety, how a behavior-based safety program is used to enhance safe behavior and a safety culture, as well as the roles and responsibilities of employees and management.This course was developed with subject matter support provided by Winn Forensics, LLC, a professional services company focusing on corporate, business, and personal safety training as well as consulting on occupational injury matters.
