What is GHS?

Globally Harmonized System of Classification and

Labelling of Chemicals GHS

Scope: Chemical substances and mixtures (products)

Objective: Communication of hazard information by labelling and

SDS

Specifies classification categories and criteria for hazards

Shows methods for labelling and SDS descriptions based on the

classification

Systems common worldwide (promotion of mutual understanding

and distribution of products)

Covers all parties handling chemicals, such as business operators,

workers, consumers, transportation personnel, emergency

responders and the like


Basic Principles of Harmonization

Not degrading health and environmental protection.

Easy to understand.

Applicable to all chemicals basically focusing on the hazards of chemical substances.

Covering all chemical substances and mixtures. Pharmaceutical products, food additives, cosmetics and residual pesticide

in food are excluded because these are considered intentional consumption

Classifying substances by using available data

Start from where the System can be introduced.

(Building block approach)

GHS


Hazard Classification Criteria Specified in United Nations’ GHS Document

Specification of the concept (definition) for each hazard

Classification criteria (criteria to determine class/category)

Mixtures standard for content

(formula for calculation/standard concentration table）

Utilization of existing data (tests/case/epidemiology)

Setting criteria for category (categories/subcategories)

Based on strength of action (quantitative data)

Based on the certainty of evidence

Concept of GHS


GHS classification for Mixtures

1. Classification as a mixture (the product as a whole)

(Not “containing an ingredient equivalent to”)

Description of ingredients is required (SDS)

2. If no data are available for the product as a whole

a. Bridging principle: estimate from similar mixtures

b. Applying formula and table: the total hazards are

determined based on ingredient information

3. Separate criteria for classification and labelling

(two-level criteria for the content of the ingredient

exhibiting the concerned action)

Concept of GHS


Target Audiences of Hazard Information Communication

Workplace (including agricultural chemicals and pharmaceuticals)

: Employers, workers

Labels, SDS

Consumer products : Consumers

Labels

Emergency response : Emergency responders (fire fighters, medical personnel)

Labels, SDS

Transport : Persons involved in transport (drivers, unloading staff, emergency responders and the like) Labels, Placarding, Transport documents

Pictogram Meaning Pictogram Meaning

Explosive. Explodes by flames or

on impact

Causes acute health hazards if

swallowed or inhaled

May be ignited by heat, flames, on

contact with air or on impact

Causes health hazard, but not

serious and the environment

hazard by destroying ozone in the

upper atmosphere

Intensifies combustion of other

substance

Causes specific health damage

through prolonged or repeated

exposure

Gases under pressure Cause harmful effects to the

environment

Corrosive to metals, causes

skin/eye damage if in contact

Meanings of Pictograms in GHS Concept of GHS


Why is GHS Necessary?

A chemical substance with a LD50 (oral) value of 257 mg/kg

used to be expressed as…

Prior to GHS implementation

EU Harmful

US Toxic

Japan Toxic

Korea Toxic

China Not dangerous

India Non-toxic

Malaysia Harmful

Thailand Harmful

New Zealand Hazardous

After GHS implementation

Acute toxicity

Category 3

Toxic if

swallowed

Concept of GHS


GHS Benefits

Protection of human health and environment around

the world will be enhanced

An internationally maintained system will be made

available to all nation without an existing system

Avoidance of duplication of testing and evaluation of

chemicals to determine their hazardous effects will be

ensured

International trade in chemicals will be facilitated

Classification Signal word Hazard statement Rationale for the classification

Acute toxicity （Oral） Category 4 Warning H302: Harmful if

swallowed

Based on the LD50 value of 605mg/kg calculated from the testing data of rat

LD50 (oral route) of 600mg/kg (SIDS (2002)), 700mg/kg (SIDS (2002)) and

800mg/kg (SIDS (2002)).

Acute toxicity （Dermal） Category 3 Danger H311: Toxic in

contact with skin

Based on the testing data of rabbit LD50 (dermal route) of 270mg/kg (EHC 89

(1989)).

Acute toxicity （Inhalation: Gases）

Category 2 Danger H330: Fatal if inhaled Based on the testing data of rat LC50 (inhalation of gas) of 480ppm (SIDS

(2002)).

Skin corrosion/irritation Category 2 Warning H315: Causes skin

irritation

Based on the testing data of rabbit skin irritation tests (EHC 89 (1989)):

"mild to moderate" and data on human health effects (EHC 89 (1989)).

Serious eye damage/eye

irritation Category 2A Warning

H319: Causes

serious eye irritation

Based on epidemiological cases (EHC 89 (1989)) the results of animal eye

irritation tests (SIDS (2002), EHC 89 (1989)) (moderate irritation).

Respiratory sensitization Category 1 Danger

H334: May cause

allergy or asthma

symptoms or

breathing difficulties if

inhaled

Based on the testing data of IgE specific immune responses of guinea pigs

(CICAD 40 (2002)) (positive), data on human health effects (EHC 89 (1989))

and the classification by the Japan Society for Occupational Health.

Skin sensitization Category 1 Warning H317: May cause an

allergic skin reaction

Epidemiological cases (EHC 89 (1989), CERI-NITE Hazard Assessment No.71

(2005)) and the classification by the Japan Society for Occupational Health

and the Japanese Society for Contact Dermatitis.

Germ cell mutagenicity Category 2 Warning H341: Suspected of

causing genetic

defects

Based on the negative data on germ cell mutagenicity tests in vivo (chromosome aberration

tests in the spermatocytes of mice), positive data on somatic cell mutagenicity tests in vivo

(micronucleus and chromosome aberration tests) (exclusively for gastrointestinal/alveolar

cells exposed directly to formaldehyde), and absence of data on germ cell genotoxicity tests

in vivo, described in CERI-NITE Hazard Assessment No.71 (2005) and SIDS (2004). Some

dominant lethal studies in rats show slightly positive (ambiguous), which is not taken into

account, because they are not considered valid for evaluation purposes.

Carcinogenicity Category 1A Danger H350: May cause

cancer

Due to the fact that the substance is classified as Group 1 (carcinogenic to

humans) by IARC (2005).

Specific target organ

toxicity - Single exposure

Category 1

(nervous

system,

respiratory

system)

danger

H370: Causes

damage to organs

(nervous system,

respiratory system)

Based on the human evidence including "irritation to the respiratory tract

ACGIH" (7th, 2001), "irritation to the respiratory tract, a decrease in the

sensitivity of the nasal and palatine nerve, adverse effects on the

hypothalamus" (CERI-NITE Hazard Assessment No.71 (2005)), and the

evidence from animal studies including "irritation to the respiratory tract,

general convulsions (muscles, etc.), pulmonary edema" (SIDS (2004)).

3.SDS


1. The number of GHS implementation countries has steadily increased,

except Africa, South Asia and the Middle East.

2. Developed GHS implementation countries/area has been updated in accordance with GHS purple book which is revised once every two years.(EU, Japan, China, Korea etc.)

3. But there are still different from GHS classification, labelling , SDS format.

4. SDS/label are required from translation version to local one.

5. Those items should be changed in accordance with ship to country requirement when exporting.

6. If those items will be harmonized in ASEAN, it gains great merit in trade.

In future hope that such movements will be emerged
