Abstract

The preparation of MSDS (material safety data sheets) began in Japan in April 1993 with the notice of three Ministries, the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the Ministry of International Trade and Industry and the Ministry of Labor. MSDS are designed to provide chemical information to protect human health and the environment from chemical hazards. Important points in describing hazard information in MSDS are explained as well as references which are useful for preparation of MSDS. Problems for further discussion are also pointed out.
