Summary of OSHA Hazard Communication Safety 2026

In this video, I discuss the importance of the OSHA Hazard Communication Standard and how it impacts your health and safety at work. I explain how we can be exposed to hazardous substances through ingestion, inhalation, and skin absorption, and emphasize the need for employees to be informed about these risks. I also highlight the improvements made by the Globally Harmonized System in making safety data sheets easier to understand. Please take an active role in understanding the substances you work with and review the safety data sheets regularly.
