is based on a simple
concept—that employees have both a need and a right to know the hazards
and identities of the chemicals they are exposed to when working. They
also need to know what protective measures are available to prevent
adverse effects from occurring. OSHA designed the HCS to provide employees
with the information they need to know. While working on railroad property
there are additional pieces of information that you as a contractor need
to know. This course will address issues that you need to know.
