OSHA requires that employers have SDSs in English. However, an employer may go beyond this requirement and have copies of SDSs in other languages to further the understanding of employees, and to promote general workplace safety. Also, in a Letter of Interpretation, OSHA says “Paragraph 29 CFR 1910.1200(h) requires employers to provide employees with information and training on hazardous chemicals in their work area. If the employees that are required to receive this information and training does not comprehend verbal English, the employer must inform and train these employees in a language which is comprehensible in order to satisfy the requirements of 29 CFR 1910.1200(h).”
