A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is a document that contains information on the potential hazards and how to work safely with a hazardous material. MSDSs are prepared by the supplier or manufacturer of the material. Employers must make sure that all hazardous materials have an up-to-date MSDS when they enter the workplace. The MSDSs must then be readily available to workers and other health and safety representatives who are exposed to the material.

Aegis Company realizes that MSDSs are an essential starting point for the development of a complete health and safety program and offers services to obtain, organize, and store these documents, as well as provide options to access and view the information.

Your MSDSs library may be computerized and stored on CD ROM with read-only, print-only capabilites or simply have a copy of each original MSDS numbered, indexed and stored in loose-leaf binders. Aegis Company maintains backup systems for both programs.

Other MSDS Management Program services include the following:

Complete on-site physical inventories of hazardous substances to
   determine missing MSDSs.

Archive MSDSs for products no longer used. Archived MSDSs may
   be found on search at any time.

Hazard Communication (Right-to-Know) training provided on-site.
