Labelling chemicals
Description
Labelling chemicals involves the systematic identification and clear marking of chemical substances to communicate hazards, safe handling instructions, and emergency measures. This strategy ensures that users, transporters, and responders can quickly recognize risks, reducing accidents, exposure, and environmental contamination. Effective chemical labelling remedies problems of misidentification, improper storage, and unsafe usage, supporting regulatory compliance and promoting workplace and public safety through standardized, accessible information.
