![]() Getting Ahead with Health and Safety Signage
By Suzanne Batchelor - May 2009
People often ask, "How can I be competitive and even more successful in a recession economy." The answer is not as easy as it sounds: "Find a need and fill it."

First, to be competitive, you have to be ahead of the eight ball, the leader of the pack - in short - the first to get an item to market. To be successful is trickier. Many customers don't always know what they need. If you have a golden product and your customers don't know they need it, then it is up to you to educate them. So that is why I am writing this article - to help you help your customers.
Background
OSHA Implementation The ANPR explains the history of the development of the GHS, including OSHA's involvement in the process. It also indicates how alignment with the GHS would affect the requirements of the HCS, and asks a series of questions to allow the public an opportunity to provide input. The comment period closed on November 13, 2006 and the final rule is in line for adoption. To set the stage for the GHS, the American National Standards Institute issued guidance in July 2007 for US companies to follow for the labeling of chemicals to more effectively communicate hazards. This guidance includes signs and symbols that companies can already begin adopting and it is clearly paving the way for the adoption of the GHS.
