Hazardous Communication Safety Tags, HMCIS Format

Use these tags to clearly communicate hazards to personnel in order to prevent the potential for accidental injury and property damage. The front of the tag has colored bars for rating health hazard (blue), flammability (red), instability (yellow), and personal protection (white) similar to the format used by HMCIS. The reverse side has a space for the chemical name and a series of check boxes to identify specific risks associated with route of entry, health hazards, physical hazards, target organs and effects.
