Specification for Hazard communication for hazardous chemicals and dangerous goods. Part 2: Globally harmonised system of classification and labelling of chemicals - Singagore's adaptations
This Singapore Standard adopts the United Nations Globally Harmonised System of Classification
and Labelling of Chemicals, which provides an international system for the classification of chemicals
by the types of hazards that they present. It also specifies standard hazard communication elements
including labels and safety data sheets.
The GHS helps to ensure that information on physical hazards, health hazards and environmental
hazards from chemicals is made available, in order to enhance the protection of human health and
the environment during the handling, transport, and use, of these chemicals.
The GHS provides for the global harmonisation of rules and regulations on the classification and
labelling of chemicals as well as hazard communication about chemicals.
The GHS is adapted by Singapore for the classification and labelling of chemicals in Singapore and for
their use in international trade.
This standard provides guidance for the implementation of the GHS in Singapore.
