Text For Citation: 02 Item/Group: 003 Hazard:
29 CFR 1910.1200(g)(10): Safety data sheets may be kept in any form, including operating procedures, and may be designed to cover groups of hazardous chemicals in a work area where it may be more appropriate to address the hazards of a process rather than individual hazardous chemicals. However, the employer shall ensure that in all cases the required information is provided for each hazardous chemical, and is readily accessible during each work shift to employees when they are in their work area(s). ESTALISHMENT: On/or about July 9, 2014, the safety data sheets for the chemicals, such as (but not limited to) sulfur powder, salicylic acid powder, eucalyptus oil, and phenol (carbolic acid) used in the Pharmacy area were not readily accessible during the work shift to the employees when they were in their work area.
