All chemical labels must be written in English and be firmly secured to the container, visible in the normal storage position, durable, and in good condition. 2.2 Label Elements The following elements are required for containers of hazardous chemicals to be correctly labelled: Product identifier a unique name or number by which the chemical is known – Supplier contact information the name, Australian address and business – telephone number of either the manufacturer or importer Ingredient proportions or concentrations the identity and proportion disclosed – for each chemical ingredient: using the IUPAC name, the CAS name or the technical name generally used and recognised by the scientific community Hazard pictograms any hazard pictogram consistent with the correct – classification of the chemical. The GHS specifies nine hazard pictograms which depict physical, health and environmental hazards Signal word consistent with the classification. Only one signal word should be present on any one label: DANGER is used for more severe hazards WARNING is used for less severe hazards. Hazard statements these are unique to each hazard class and category and – describe the nature of the hazard. All relevant hazard statements must appear on the label Precautionary statements these are unique to each hazard class and category – and are divided into the following five categories: Prevention - to prevent accidents or exposure Response - instructions in case of accident Storage - instructions for safe storage Disposal - appropriate disposal instructions General Other information about the hazards, first aid and emergency procedures relevant to the chemical Expiry date of the chemical (if applicable) some chemicals degrade, – decompose, or become unstable over time.
