RULE I. PREPARATION OF WARNINC LABELS
In preparing warning labels, the following general principles shall gosrern:
- (a) Each Ciemieat a Diitinet ProHem. Each chemical product proems a distinct problem and must be treated individually in the light of iu own
characteristics. Products composed of two or more substances may have prop erties that vary in kind or oegrec 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 Undertiood Termi. All statements on warning labels shall be brief, accurate, and expressed in simple, easily understood terms.
(e) Pteeautionary information. Precautionary information shall be used
only when and to the extent necessary.

(e) Sutjeet Motter. 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;
4. Precautionary measures covering actions to be followed or avoided;
5. Instructions in care of contact or exposure, where advisable;
6. Instructions for handling and storage of containers.

[n contrast by typography, layout, or color with other -printed matter on the
libel. The label shall.be affixed firmly to and'in a conspicuous place on die
rentstrier.
(by Small Packager within a Larger Package. When one or more'peekages bearing "DANGER" warning labels arc incorporated in a common con tainer, the common or outer container shall be labeled by the rignal word "DANGER" followed by the word that indicates the most significant hasard, inch as "DANGER-POISON", "DANGER-FLAMMABLE , etc.
Section IV. INFORMATION TO RE- INCLUDED ON WARNING
LABfLS
.
RULE' I. INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED ON WARNINC
LABELS SHAM* BE BASED ON THE FOLLOWING:
(a) Name at Product. A non-dcscriptivc code designation or trade name ihall net be used ts the only identification of a hazardous isbiUKc. II the complete chemical name is noTahowd, the label shall at least,clearly state the type of substance, eg., "corrosive acid", "lead compound".
(b) Signal Ward. This word is-intended--to draw attention to the pres ence of hazard, and to indicate the degree of- seventy. The signal words ere in the order ol dimihiihing'severity ol hazard:
1. "DANGER"
2. "WARNING" 3. "CAUTION"
' Degree of severity can be expressed only in relative terms. "DANGER" .
it the strongest of the three words and shall be used for those products pre senting the most serious hazards. "CAUTION" is required for those com pounds presenting the .(cast serious hazards. "WARNING" is intermediate between "DANGER" and "CAUTION".
(c) Statem/at of Naaardi. Thif statement ihall give notice of the hazards
that arc prtaent in connection with the cuitomary or reasonable anticipated
handling or sue of the product. Examples arc:
.
"CAUSES BURNS"
.
"vapor Extremely hazardous"
Marly chemical product! will present more than one type of hasard, So hich case appropriate -itaumcats far each significant type shall be included aa the label. While any compound may be hazarsloui if Improperly userf, it a impractical to cover every possible contingency one label. In some instances title a mild caution it indicated, the .sutement of hazards may be omitted

and adequate information provided by the tignal word "CAUTION" followed by the statement of precautionary measures.
(d) Precautionary Metiurn. These instructions arc intended to supple, mem the statement of ftaurds by briefly setting forth, measures to be taken to avoid injury or damage from ruled hacards. Eaamples 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 sutement of haz ards. In some instances, the omission of a precautionary statement may be justified, where the measure to be followed is obvious from the statement of haurd. For example, "Do not take internally'' is unnecesury when the state ment of hazard contains the words, "May be fatal if swallowed."
(e) Inttructioat in Cota of Contact or Etpoture. The primary purpose of a warning label is 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 is highly desirable, and where simple remedial measures may be taken safely by'.non-professional persons before medical assistance is available. Instructions shall be'limited to recognized 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 medial 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 ipduded where they will serve to avoid serious injury following conuet or caposurc.
All precautionary information shall appear on the label as a unit and . shall be primed in the order given above. Relative prominence shall be given
the individual statements. Relative prominence may be achieved in a number of ways such as 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 conuci 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 arc to be used where oppliablc.
Secflon y. 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 (heir use is required for ufe handling and storage. Care must always be exercised in handling and storing containers of hazardous substances. The general pre-
