Hazard Communication
The Hazard Communication Program is designed to ensure that University of Memphis
employees are protected from harm resulting from exposure to hazardous chemicals during
routine operations and
reasonable foreseeable emergencies. Provisions of the program include requirements
to inform members of the campus community of the dangers associated with hazardous
chemicals used by the university and helping prevent injury or illness due to exposure
from these chemicals. Information on chemical hazards can be found on chemical labels
and safety data sheets. Employees should be thoroughly apprised of the chemicals used
in the workplace and safety data sheets for a chemical should be reviewed prior to
the chemical being used.
