United States SDS Authoring

National Regulations Governing SDSs

In the United States the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard Communication Standard “U.S. DOL, OSHA, 29 CFR 1910.1200” sets out the regulations that govern the authoring of SDS’s. For more information please refer to the OSHA Brief – Hazard Communication Standard: Safety Data Sheets.

Additional Regulations

California Proposition 65 “Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986” requires that you determine whether any of the hazardous chemicals in a product formula are subject to Proposition 65 requirements.

GHS Implementation Status

The Hazard Communication Standard (Hazcom 2024) brought the US more in line with the UN GHS based system. Substances must comply with the updated regulation by January 19, 2026 while products that are mixtures must comply by July 19, 2027. See more information on Haxcom 2024.

Multi – Jurisdiction SDS Options

A US SDS may be combined with Canadian regulations. Mexico has implemented GHS, it is not recommended to combine with US documents
