- Using Safety Data Sheets to identify and manage hazardous substances.
- Interpreting critical SDS sections, including hazard identification, first aid measures, accidental release measures, handling and storage requirements, exposure controls and PPE, disposal considerations, and review or validity information.
- Understanding common hazard statements such as eye irritation, drowsiness risk, and environmental toxicity.
- Recognising GHS labels and pictograms to classify chemical hazards, including flammable, toxic, and environmental risks.
- Identifying unsafe practices such as using unlabelled containers, bypassing PPE, incorrect storage or disposal, and improper spill response.
- Checking SDS revision and review dates before use.
- Selecting and wearing appropriate PPE based on SDS guidance.
- Storing hazardous substances according to specified conditions.
- Disposing of chemicals in line with regulatory and SDS requirements.
- Evaluating scenarios to determine safe versus hazardous conditions.
- Strengthening critical thinking and hazard recognition when working with hazardous substances.
Train your team to handle, store, and respond to hazardous substances safely, reducing the risk of harm to people, equipment, and the environment by placing them in an immersive warehouse setting where a range of chemical hazards are present. The experience builds practical skills in interpreting Safety Data Sheets and applying structured risk assessment tools to make correct decisions in high-risk situations.
Hazardous substances are common in many roles, yet improper handling and poor understanding of Safety Data Sheets can lead to severe or fatal outcomes.
The training places users in realistic scenarios where they are required to:
- Identify hazardous substances and evaluate associated risks.
- Locate and apply the relevant sections of a Safety Data Sheet to guide decisions.
- Use the Hierarchy of Controls and the Risk Assessment Matrix to reduce chemical exposure.
- Understand the operational and environmental consequences of inadequate chemical safety.
This practical approach goes beyond compliance, reinforcing awareness and behaviours that protect people, assets, and the surrounding environment.
