ICC New GHMIS™ System gives employers choices. Our 2 GHS ready compliance programs are ready now.

GHMIS™ is a new global workplace hazard communication system to improve safety in the workplace. Based on WHMIS workplace regulations and Labour Canada.Employees will recognize hazards instantly. Simplicity is the key with the GHMIS™ system as it is a symbols based system to avoid increasing language barriers. Details for the workplace labels will easily be found on the supplier label and transferred on to workplace labels by workers. This system alerts workers of the Health Hazards, Physical Hazards, Environmental Hazards and Target |Organ Effects of a chemical. It will also identify the minimum personal protection required when handling. The GHMIS™ system exceeds the requirements under Labour Canada GHS within WHMIS

HMIS is another new revised edition of a widely used program in North America. The system now complies with GHS within WHMIS by eliminating the numbered rating system. Using a simplified symbols only system eliminates language barriers and the requirement for additional training. Some additional changes to the system include: modification to the text in the color bars, GHS Symbols, expanded personal protection symbols and target organ Effect symbols are now included on the labels More information

For more information or a demonstration, please contact customer service 888.442.9628.
