WHEN YOU PROVIDE A SAFETY DATA SHEET
A safety data sheet should be provided when:
- A substance or a mixture is classified as hazardous;
- A substance is persistent, bioaccumulative and toxic (PBT) or very persistent and very bioaccumulative (vPvB); or
- A substance is included in the Candidate List for Authorisation according to REACH (for other reasons than the above)
- Mixtures which are not classified as hazardous, but which contain specified concentrations of certain hazardous substances, also require a safety data sheet to be provided on request.
WHAT TO DO WHEN YOU RECEIVE THE SAFETY DATA SHEET
You need to identify and apply appropriate measures to properly control the risks at your site.
You should also perform a consistency and plausibility check of the safety data sheet contents, you should compare all sections related to chemical identification, composition, classification, and safe use against on the substance or mixture.
The safety data sheet must be update when:
- If the classification is changed
- new information on the risk management measures, or new information on hazards becomes available;
- once an authorisation has been granted or refused, or a restriction has been imposed
