Introduction
As we move further into 2025, businesses handling chemicals must stay updated with the latest Safety Data Sheet (SDS) regulations. Non-compliance not only risks legal penalties but can also compromise workplace safety. This post highlights the recent updates and how ICSDS LLC helps companies navigate these evolving requirements.
What’s New in SDS Regulations in 2025
While no major federal overhauls have been confirmed yet (as of early 2025), several trends and expected updates include:
- Global Harmonized System (GHS) Revision 10: The United Nations released GHS Rev. 10 in 2023. Countries like the U.S. and Canada are evaluating its implementation.
- OSHA’s Alignment with GHS: OSHA is anticipated to finalize its updates aligning the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) with the latest GHS revisions.
- Electronic SDS Management Push: Agencies are encouraging more robust digital SDS systems to reduce paper usage and improve accessibility.
- Emphasis on Sustainability: Environmental disclosure and sustainability labeling are gaining traction as part of SDS content.
- Cross-border Harmonization: Businesses exporting chemicals must comply with local SDS rules. Canada’s WHMIS and Europe’s REACH are expected to see updates in 2025.
Why These Changes Matter
Failing to comply with updated SDS regulations can result in:
- Heavy fines from OSHA or local regulatory agencies.
- Business operation disruptions.
- Reputational damage due to poor safety practices.
- See our previous blogpost about the deadlines.
Key Compliance Deadlines
While timelines vary, OSHA‘s proposed alignment with GHS Rev. 7/8 is expected to move forward in 2025. Businesses should start auditing their SDS inventories, update classification and labeling, and ensure accessibility for employees.
