This book is the fourth revised edition of the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS), developed through international collaboration between organizations such as the ILO, OECD, and the United Nations. Originating from a mandate at the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development in Rio, the GHS aims to harmonize chemical classification and labeling globally. It outlines hazard communication elements, including safety labels and data sheets, to enhance protection of human health and the environment during handling, transport, and use of chemicals. The GHS also facilitates international trade by providing a consistent regulatory basis. Updated regularly, this edition includes new hazard categories for chemically unstable gases and aerosols, and refined guidance for precautionary measures.

This publication by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs provides a comprehensive list of products, particularly chemicals, whose sale or consumption has been banned or regulated by governments worldwide. The thirteenth edition focuses on new data from December 2004 to December 2006 and aims to protect public health by updating and expanding the list annually. It serves as a vital resource for governments and institutions to understand international regulatory measures and assess potential health risks associated with certain industrial, agricultural, and consumer products. The document also aids in global negotiations and advises governments on implementing international policies at the national level.

The Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) is a collaborative effort among the International Labour Organization, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, and the United Nations. Developed from a mandate established at the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, the GHS aims to standardize the classification of chemical hazards and communication elements, such as labels and safety data sheets. The system seeks to enhance the protection of human health and the environment by providing consistent hazard information. Primarily targeted at governments and regional institutions, the GHS also serves as a foundation for national and international chemical regulations, facilitating safer handling, transport, and use of chemicals. This fourth revised edition includes updates on hazard categories and criteria for classification.

The Manual of Tests and Criteria contains criteria, test methods and procedures to be used for classification of dangerous goods according to the provisions of Parts 2 and 3 of the United Nations Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods, Model Regulations, as well as of chemicals presenting physical hazards according to the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). Originally developed by the Economic and Social Council's Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods which adopted a first version in 1984, it has been regularly updated and amended every two years. The amendments listed in this publication include: amendments to the procedure for assignment to a Division of Class 1; amendments to test series 7 for the classification as extremely insensitive explosive article; a test method for the classification of gases and gas mixtures as chemically unstable (new section 35); amendments to the procedures to be followed for the classification of lithium metal and lithium ion cells and batteries; amendments to the variations permitted for MEGCs design without additional testing; and a new appendix 8 detailing the response descriptors to be used for the purposes of Test series 7.
