SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Meeting
OSHA is hosting an open informal
public meeting of the U.S. Interagency
GHS Coordinating Group to provide
interested groups and individuals with
an update on GHS-related issues and an
opportunity to express their views
orally and in writing for consideration
in developing U.S. Government
positions for the upcoming UNSCEGHS
meeting. Interested stakeholders may
also provide input on issues related to
the RCC at the meeting. The public is
invited to attend without prior
notification. The meeting agenda, in
general, is as follows:
• Discussion of working papers for
the 23rd Session of the UNSCEGHS,
• Update on UNSCEGHS
correspondence group activity, and
• Update of RCC activity and
discussion of issues.
OSHA does not seek stakeholder
consensus in this meeting, but rather to
learn stakeholders’ individual views on
these issues and receive any relevant
information they may have.
II. Background
The GHS was formally adopted by the
United Nations Committee of Experts on
the Transport of Dangerous Goods and
on the Globally Harmonized System of
Classification and Labelling of
Chemicals in December 2002. The GHS
is a single, harmonized system for
classification of chemicals according to
their health, physical, and
environmental effects. It also provides
harmonized communication elements,
including labels and safety data sheets.
The GHS is considered to be a living
document and is regularly revised and
updated as necessary to reflect new
technology and scientific developments
or to provide additional explanatory
text.
The UNSCEGHS is responsible for
maintaining and updating the GHS. The
U.S. has been an active member of the
UNSCEGHS for many years, and OSHA
currently serves as the head of the U.S.
delegation for this Sub-committee.

meetings of the UNSCEGHS, the U.S.
