IN-PLANT CONTAINER LABEL VERBAGE
The Hazard Communication Standard requires that in-plant containers of hazardous materials contain an appropriate chemical identity and an appropriate hazard warning.
To assure compliance with the labeling requirement a hazard warning should be added to your current label. I would propose the wording below be added to your powder mixture label, below the list of chemicals.
These chemicals may be poisonous, toxic, or irritating when
inhaled.
Avoid breathing dust when handling.
Read the
appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet for more detailed
information.
The label content for waste oils and plasticizers that are not for disposal is more difficult to determine. Some plasticizers are nonhazardous according to osha criteria, others are combustible only, while others may be skin irritants. DOP is a suspect carcinogen. We need to further discuss the label content for mixed liquid wastes before I can recommend language.
