Written HazCom program
['Hazard Communication']

- The written HazCom program should serve as a blueprint for implementation of the program.
Most employers covered by the HazCom standard must have a written HazCom program. (There are exceptions for laboratories and workplaces where employees only handle sealed containers of hazardous chemicals.) The written program explains how the company is meeting the requirements of the HazCom standard. It should provide enough detail to show a good faith effort is being made to comply with the standard.
In general, the written program must describe how the requirements for labels and other forms of warning, safety data sheets (SDSs), employee information, and training are going to be met.
It must be available, upon request, to employees, their designated representatives, and any OSHA officials. If the workers’ job assignment requires travel between various geographical locations, employers may keep the written program at the primary work location.
