Stationary Process Container Labeling
Stationary process containers, such as storage tanks, are fixed in place.
The employer may use signs, placards, process sheets, batch tickets, operating procedures, or other written materials instead of labels on individual stationary process containers. The alternative must identify the containers it covers, communicate the required workplace-label information, and remain readily accessible to employees throughout each work shift.
Portable Container Labeling
A portable container may be left unlabeled only when the chemical is under the control of and used exclusively by the employee who transferred it from a labeled container, and only within the same work shift. If any of these conditions is not met, the container must be labeled.
Drugs dispensed by a pharmacy to a health care provider for direct administration to a patient are exempt from these workplace-labeling requirements.
