[Histonet] MSDS binders
Hello Histonetters, Does anyone know if there is a rule as to MSDS binders having to be in yellow and black bold lettering? Do we even still need to have hard copy if we have access to msds.com on desk top? I am in Ca and will be CLIA licensed.. Thank you in advance!!

Re: [Histonet] MSDS binders
Not certain about CLIA, but CAP only requires immediate available access to the MSDS's by any personal using chemicals. I interpret that as digital copies ok, as long as everyone has access. I have passed three inspections with digital MSDS only.

In practicality you would turn to your online version first. What happens if the computer system/network is down. Seems like it would be prudent to have a hard copy available.

RE: [Histonet] MSDS binders
There must be some way for the Fire Department to be able to access MSDS. As Victor rightly points out, if your computer system is down, that option no longer exists. It is not only prudent, it is mandatory for the Fire Service to be able to look up any chemical within your facility. If you cannot satisfy your local fire daprtment, they will close you down quicker than CAP or CLIA ever could.

Our Fire Marshalls even require we have a big red sign pointing to where the hard copies are located. They don't need to hunt for it in case of an event.

Re: [Histonet] MSDS binders
I would say if your computer system is down, then your electricity is probably out so I would hightail it out of there. Or ask yourself, why am I working with hazardous chemicals in the dark? Our EHS allows digital MSDS as well, but they say you could always call them if necessary. So maybe that's also what you would do if you computer system was down.

Re: [Histonet] MSDS binders
Actually now that I think about it, it would be faster to have a digital system, as you could search the MSDS file with the find option to get exactly what you needed. Also the most updated copies would be online always and you could google for them. And you would haven't to remember the actual chemical name for things like TESPA.
