SacfJoa III. GENERAL DIRECTIONS OF LABELING PROCEDURE
RULF. I. PREPARATION OF WARNING LABELS
In preparing warning labels, the following general principles shall govern:
(a) EoeK Chemical a Dittinet Problem. Each chemical product presents
a distinct problem and must be treated individually in the light of its own chsracteristict. Products composed of two or more substances may hare prop erties that vary in kind or degree from those of the individual components, and warning label shall be based upon the properties of the finished mixture. Impurities may contribute hazardous properties and shall not be overlooked.
(b)
Statement/ in Undertlood Termi. All statements on waning labels
shall be brief, accurate, and expressed in simple, easily understood terms.
<c) Precautionary .Information. Precautionary information shall be used
only when and to the extent necessary.
-
(d) Labelt for Different Product!. On labels lot different products, uni formity in language shall be used to indicate the same hazards and same de gree of hazard.
(e) Subject Matter. The following subject matter shall be considered for ' inclusion on a warning label:
1. Name of Product;
2. Signal word designating degree of hazard--"DANGER", "WARN ING", or "CAUTION";
-3. Affirmative statements of hazards;
Precautionary measures covering actions to be followed or avoided;
5. Instructions in case of contact or exposure, where advisable;
6. Instructions for handling and storage of containers.
222
PART J, Sec. J, Rule 1 (t)
(() tuiution o/ word "POISON". The indusion of the word "POISON"
tod the skull and crossboncs on a Libel halt be limited to those c u a where
d product Is a poison according to the definition or where such use is pre-
nibed by law. When used, thislegend shall be in addition to the other label
sming and shall not take the place of the'signat words, DANGER, WARN*
ING, and CAUTION, which are designed' to show the relative degrees of
hitard.
'
(g) L tM in Coatpieaout Place. Warning sutements shall be located
pominently oh th label and shall be printed in easily legible type which is
la contrast by typography, layout, or color with other primed matter on the
libel. The label itull.be affited firmly to and'in a conspicuous place on the
container.
(h) ' Small Paehaget within a Larger Package. When one or more pack
ages bearing "DANGER" warning labels are incorporated in a common con-
tuner, .lise common or outer container shall be labeled by the tignai word
"DANGER" followed by the word that indicates the most significant hazard,
such as "DANGER-POISON", "DANGER-FLAMMABLE*', etc.
Steffen IV. INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED ON WARNING
IABEU
.
RULE-1. INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED ON WARNINC
LABELS SHALL BE BASED ON THE FOLLOWING:
(a) Name a/ Product. A non-dcscriptlve code designation or trade name shall not be used as the only identification of a hazardous substance. If the complete chemical name it not shown, the label shall at least, clearly state the type of tubstabcc, c-g., "corrosive acid", "lead compound".
(b) Signal Word. This word is-mended so draw attention to the pres ence of hazard, and to indicate the degree of severity. The signal words are in the order of diminishing'severity of hazard:
1. "DANGER"
2. "WARNING"
3. XAUTION"
Degree of severity can be expressed only in relative terms. "DANGER" . is the strongest of the three words and shall be used for chose products premtiiig the most serious hazards. "CAUTION" is required for chose com pounds presenting the lease serious hazards. "WARNING" is intermediate between "DANGER" and "CAUfION".
(c) Statement of Haxardi. This sucement shall give notice of the .hazards
that are present in connection with the customary or reasonable anticipated
handling or use of she product. Examples arc:
"CAUSES. BURNS"
.
"v a p o r Ex t r e m e l y h a z a r d o u s "
Mariy chemical products will present more than otic type of hazard, in which ease appropriate-sutensents for each significant type shall be included on the label While any compound may be hazardous if improperly used, it impractical.to cover every possible contingency on* label. In some instances where a mild caution is indicated, the .statement of hazards may be omitted
223
PART J. See. 4. Rule I (d)
and adequate information provided by the signal word "C A UTIO N" followed by the itatement of precautionary mcaiuret.
(d) Precautionary Mrantra. There instruction! arc intended to supple* ment the statement of hazards by briefly setting forth measures to be taken to avoid injury or damage from dated hazards. Examples arc:
"KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT AND OPEN FLAME"
"AVOID BREATHING DUST" Precautionary measures may be included for less serious hazards not con sidered of sufficient importance to require inclusion in the statement of haz ards. In tome instances, the omission of a precautionary statement may be justified, where the measure to be followed is obvious from the statement of hazard. For example, "Do not take internally" it unnecessary when the state ment of hazard contains the words. "May be fatal if swallowed."
(e) Initructioni in C u t of Comae! or Encontre. The primary purpose of a warning label it to prevent injury or damage. Instructions in case of . contact or exposure shall be included in those instances where the results of contact or exposure are severe and immediate treatment it highly desirable, and where simple remedial measures may be taken safely by.tton-profestioiul persons before medical assistance it available. Instructions shall be`limited to rctognized first aid procedures .based on simple methods and Commonly avail able materials. Instructions for strictly medical treatment shall be omitted except when specifically required by law. Because of the serious and lasting effects that may result from eye injuries, a recommendation to get medical attention shall accompany any specific instructions directed to treatment of the eyes. In certain instances simple remedial measures such as washing or removal of clothing may be included where they will serve to avoid serious injury following conuct or exposure.
All precautionary information shall appear on the label as a unit and shall be printed in thq order given above. Relative prominence shall be given the individual statements. Relative prominence may be achieved in a number of ways such at by variation in type size, color, or layout of the primed mate rial. Products will be encountered that present hazards varying in kind or degree from those listed.
Appropriate statements of hazards, precautionary measures and instruc tions in case of contact or exposure shall be prepared on the basis of the properties of the product, following the pattern and general phraseology of the table in Section V. Parenthetical words in the table express variations in kind or degree and are to be used where applicable.
Section V. CONTAINER HANDLING AND STORAGE
RULE 1. Precautionary statements must be used cither as separate labels or in
combination with the warning labels attached to the container whenever their use is required for ufe handling and storage. Care must always bcexcreised in handling and storing containers of hazardous substances. The general pre-
224
PART J, Sec. 5. Rulo I
