GHS : Globally Harmonized System for Hazard Classification Labelingand Communication by UNq

Purpose:To reduce unnecessary trade barriers due to different regulations
in each country, to save effort and time on toxic/hazardous
chemical evaluation, and to provide a frame for the countries who
has not established the system yet.
