The Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) is a national system that provides comprehensive information on the hazards, safe use and handling of hazardous products used in Canadian workplaces.
WHMIS was updated in February 2015 to align with the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). This modification to WHMIS ensures that Canada's hazard classification and communication is aligned with U.S. regulatory requirements and is consistent with international best practice as laid out in the GHS, using one label and safety data sheet (SDS).
Share these informative handouts with details on what has changed, the products covered under WHMIS 2015, and the roles and responsibilities for suppliers, employers and workers.
These 5-page accordion-fold handouts are printed double-sided, with English on one side and French on the other. Note that a minimum order of 10 handouts is required.
