SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Meeting 

OSHA is hosting an open informal 

public meeting of the U.S. Interagency 

GHS Coordinating Group to provide 

interested groups and individuals with 

an update on GHS-related issues and an 

opportunity to express their views 

orally and in writing for consideration

• Discussion of working papers for

OSHA does not seek stakeholder 

consensus in this meeting, but rather to

these issues and receive any relevant 

information they may have. 

II. Background 

The GHS was formally adopted by the 

United Nations Committee of Experts on 

the Transport of Dangerous Goods and 

on the Globally Harmonized System of 

Classification and Labelling of 

Chemicals in December 2002. The GHS 

is a single, harmonized system for 

classification of chemicals according to 

their health, physical, and 

environmental effects. It also provides 

harmonized communication elements, 

including labels and safety data sheets. 

The GHS is considered to be a living 

document and is regularly revised and 

updated as necessary to reflect new 

technology and scientific developments 

or to provide additional explanatory 

text. 

The UNSCEGHS is responsible for 

maintaining and updating the GHS. The 

U.S. has been an active member of the 

UNSCEGHS for many years, and OSHA 

currently serves as the head of the U.S. 

delegation for this Sub-committee. 

In preparation for the biannual 

meetings of the UNSCEGHS, the U.S. 

Interagency GHS Coordinating Group
