    Hazard Communication Standard Notice:

    Effective June 1, 2015, Federal Standard No. 313-E, Material Safety

    Data, Transportation Data and Disposal Data for Hazardous Materials

    Furnished to Government Activities, establishes the requirement for

    preparation and submission of Safety Data Sheets (SDS) in lieu of

    Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) by suppliers who provide hazardous

    materials to government activities.

    The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has modified

    its Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) to conform to the United Nations

    Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals.

     As a result of this change, GSA revised Federal Standard No. 313-E

    requiring Safety Data Sheets for classifying chemicals and communicating

    the applicable information on labels.

    In accordance with the revised standard after June 1, 2015:

    1. Suppliers will be required to submit, to the contracting officer for

    review and approval prior to award, safety data sheets consistent with

    the requirements found at 29 C.F.R.  1910.1200 for hazardous materials

    delivered to the Government.

    2. Suppliers will also be required to submit, to the contracting officer

    for review and approval prior to award, Hazardous Communication Standard

    (HCS) labels in accordance with 29 C.F.R. 1910.1200 requirements or

    current Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA), Federal Hazardous Substance

    Act (FHSA) labels when subject to labeling requirements under those

    statutes. This product labeling is required for hazardous materials

    delivered to the Government.

    3. Finally, suppliers must train their employees on the new safety data

    sheets, hazardous communication labels, and requirements of 29 C.F.R.

    1910.1200.

    For more information on SDS, refer to OSHAs website, available at:

    https://www.osha.gov/law-regs.html
