Background

China has implemented Global Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) since 2008 by adopting the 2nd revision of UN GHS. The implementation is progressing slowly but surely with a batch of national standards concerning classification, labelling and hazard communication updated or newly formulated to conform with the 4th revision of UN GHS. The most important ones are GB/T 17519-2013 (SDS compilation guidance) and GB 30000 series (rules for classification and labelling).

多项GHS相关国家标准于2014年内生效,其中最重要的包括GB/T 17519-2013《化学品安全技术说明书编写指南》和GB 30000系列化学品分类和标签规范。Chemlinked在此有幸邀请到安监总局化学品登记中心(NRCC)的陈金合老师,为企业独家解读在履行合规义务时的要点。
