Although safety hazards related to the physical characteristics of a chemical can be objectively defined in tarma of testing requirements (eg; ilanmabUity), health hazard definitions ere laaa precise and more subjective. Health hazards may cause measurable changes in tee body-such aa decreased pulmonary function. These changes are generally Indicated by the occurrence of signs and symptoms in the exposed employees such as shortness of breath, a non-measurable, subjective feeling. Employees exposed to such hazards should be apprised ofboth the change in body function and the signs and symptoms that may occur to signal that change. The determination of occupational health hazards ia complicated by the feet teat many -of the effects or signs and symptoms occur commonly in non-occupationaJDy exposed populations, eo teat effects of exposure are difficult to separate from normally oocurring illnesses Occasionally, a subatanoe causae an effect teat ia rarely teen in the population at large, such as angiosarcomas caused by vinyl chloride exposure, thus making it easier to ascertain that the occupational exposure was the primary causative factor. Mom often, however, the affects are common, such as lung cancer. The situation is further ` complicated by the feet that most chemicals have not been adequately tested to determine their health hazard potential, and data does not exist to substantiate these affects. There have been many attempts to categorize effects and to define team hi various ways. Generally, the terms "acute" and "chronic" am used to definite between effects on tiba basis of severity or duration. "Acute" effects usually occur rapidly aa a result of abort-term exposures, era of short duration, and generally reversible. "Chronic" affects occur as aresult of long-term exposure, are of kmg duration, and may be bmverslbl*. Neither of these terms gives fI 4 4 VAB.0001034078 Mml RqUit f VoL C, Wo. W / Friday, ttodi IB. 18B2 / Propoted Rule* 12113 sufficient guidance to those attempting to define a health hazard. Tha acute affects referred to most frequently are those defined by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard for Precautionary Labeling of Hazardous Industrial Chemicals (Z1JS1-107B)-- irritation, corrosivity, sensitization and lethal dose. Although these are important health affects, they do not adequately oover the considerable range of acute effaets which my occur as a result of occupational exposure, each as. for example, narcosis. Shailariy* the term chronic effect is often used to oover only oarriftnpwntdty. teratogenicity. and mutagenicity. These effects me obviously a concern In the oovra the arra M chronic effects, excluding, for example blood dyscrasles (anemia). Although the goal of defining precisely. in meeaeureble terms, every possum hnealth effect that nay occur In tetwe worikcppileace as a result of chemical exposures cannot realistically boe accompulishnedo,. ti his does not negate tha need for employees to be protected from such affects wwfhaen they are known, and to be Informed of ai ll type* of health haierde. Ccneequently. in assessing tits health hazard potential of a chemical for purposes of compliance with this standard, tea ssaployar shall ooneldar tha edentiflcally wen-established evidence of any type of healte affect which amy occur in any body system of his/her employees. Some sources of information which tee employer imay wish to ccneult In conducting the hazard evaluation are listed la Appendix B. The following Is a target organ categorization of affects which may occur, Including examples of signs and symptoms mi chfmicali which htvi httn found to causa each effects. These examples are presented to illustrate the range and diversity of effects and hazards found in tea workplace, and the broad scope employers must consider in tide area, but are not intended to ha all-inclusive. 1.

GtridiliDM The quality of a hazard communication program is largely dependent upon the adequacy and accuracy of the hazard determination. The hazard determination requirement is performance-oriented. Chemical manufactures are not required to follow any apedfic methods for determining hazards, but it is incumbent upon team to demonstrate that they have adequately ascertained the scientifically wau-catabliahod hazards of the chemicals produced. This Appendix la intended to provide ampfoyere, who may desire to net it, with a list of some basic sources of reference for tha hazards of chemicals.
