Module 1, Basic SDS Writing 

This module is an introductory training day on the compilation of safety data sheets (SDSs) for substances and mixtures that as required by EU REACH Regulation (EC) 1907/2006 (and as amended by UK legislation).

Please note
The module focuses on the general requirements for all Sections of the SDS with some comment on the differences between EU and GB SDSs brought about by the latest amendment to the REACH Regulation (2020/878).

Who Should Attend?

This course, delivered live, online over two consecutive mornings, is a basic introduction to the preparation and writing of safety data sheets. It is specifically designed for those new to SDS authoring and covers the basic technical concepts required for creating a high quality SDS.

Benefits Of Attending

Attendance on this series of modules will ensure that your SDSs meet the increasing expectations of both your customers and the regulators. To ensure the most effective training with optimum involvement in participative exercises, there will be a limit of 16 on the number of students.

IOSH members are entitled to include this module in their continuing professional development (CPD) records.

What You Will Learn

This module will introduce participants to the basics of writing a safety data sheet and will include sessions covering the following topics:

  • understanding the reasons for good hazard communication
  • introduction to the legislation behind SDSs
  • what information is needed for each section of an SDS and where to obtain that information
  • how that information is used in the workplace
  • a logical approach to writing an SDS

Exercises will be held throughout the day to assist in the understanding of the concepts introduced.

Brexit 

Brexit is over! There are new UK versions of EU legislation, covering hazard classification and SDS authoring. This has led to different requirements for SDSs in the UK compared to the EU.

Module Tutor

This module is presented by Laura H Robinson. Laura is a qualified Toxicologist and Chemist with over 14 years’ experience in industry working with HSE related issues. This includes authoring safety data sheets, classification and labelling, environmental issues and workplace risk assessments.
