Join us for a deep dive into OSHA’s 2024 update to the Hazard Communication (HazCom) Standard and what it means for your organization. With the rule now in effect and key compliance deadlines approaching—May 19, 2026 for manufacturers and November 20, 2026 for downstream users—the clock is ticking across the entire chemical supply chain.
In this session, VelocityEHS subject matter expert Lauren Prost breaks down the regulatory background behind HazCom 2024, the alignment with GHS Revision 7 (and elements of Revision 8), and the specific classification, labeling, and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) changes you need to act on. We’ll also cover practical steps to prepare your program and how chemical management software can simplify and strengthen your compliance strategy.
