MATERIALS INFORMATION SYSTEM Q: WHAT ARE THE OBJECTIVES OF

WHMIS? Q: WHY WAS WHMIS DEVELOPED? Q: WHO DEVELOPED WHMIS?

P.Duern 2004 2


ANS: TO ENSURE THE EMPLOYEE HAS A BASIC UNDERSTANDING OF THE WHMIS

REGULATIONS– TO INSTRUCT EMPLOYEES SO THEY

UNDERSTAND: INFORMATION LABELS INFORMATION ON M. S. D. S. INFORMATION ON ALTERNATIVE CLEANERS INFORMATION ON HOW HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

CAN ENTER YOUR BODY AND THE DAMAGE THAT CAN BE DONE

WHMIS = THE RIGHT TO KNOW TO REDUCE ACCIDENTS/ INJURIES IN

THE WORKPLACE & PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT THE HAZARDOUS MATERIALS YOU WORK WITH.

3 WAYS INFORMATION IS PROVIDED:– LABELS– M.S.D.S– WORKER EDUCATION

P.Duern 2004 4


Q: WHY WAS WHMIS DEVELOPED?– INFORMATION WAS INCOMPLETE,

INCONSISTENT OR NOT AVAILABLE– EMPLOYEES/ EMPLOYERS NOT

AWARE OF HAZARDS– TO PROVIDE ALL CANADIANS A

UNIFORM AND APPROPRIATE QUANTITY OF INFO ABOUT HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

P.Duern 2004 5


CHANGE CAME FROM KNOWLEDGE THAT SAFETY PAYS

CHANGE CAME FROM EMPLOYEES LESS WILLING TO TOLERATE POOR PRACTICES

CHANGE CAME FROM KNOWLEDGE OF DANGER TO WORKERS/ COMMUNITIES/ ENVIRONMENT
