GHS Hazard Pictograms

This chemical safety infographic example shows the table of GHS hazard pictograms, their codes and meanings.
It was designed on the base of the table from the Wikimedia Commons article "GHS hazard symbols".
"Hazard symbols or warning symbols are recognisable symbols designed to warn about hazardous materials, locations, or objects, including electric currents, poisons, and radioactivity. The use of hazard symbols is often regulated by law and directed by standards organisations. Hazard symbols may appear with different colors, backgrounds, borders and supplemental information in order to specify the type of hazard. Warning symbols are used in many places in lieu of or addition to written warnings as they are quickly recognized (faster than reading a written warning) and more universally understood (the same symbol can be recognized as having the same meaning to speakers of different languages)." [Hazard symbol. Wikipedia]
The chemical safety infographic sample "GHS hazard symbols" was created using ConceptDraw PRO software extended with the GHS Hazard Pictograms solution from the Engineering area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

The vector stencils library "GHS hazard pictograms" contains 9 chemical hazard symbols.
Use it in ConceptDraw PRO software to design your chemical safety infographics, labels of containers with hazardous materials, International Chemical Safety Cards (ICSC), manufacturers' Safety Data Sheets (SDS), and Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS).
"Hazard pictograms form part of the international Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). Two sets of pictograms are included within the GHS: one for the labelling of containers and for workplace hazard warnings, and a second for use during the transport of dangerous goods. ...
Hazard pictograms are one of the key elements for the labelling of containers under the GHS, along with:
- an identification of the product;
- a signal word – either Danger or Warning – where necessary;
- hazard statements, indicating the nature and degree of the risks posed by the product;
- precautionary statements, indicating how the product should be handled to minimize risks to the user (as well as to other people and the general environment);
- the identity of the supplier (who might be a manufacturer or importer)." [GHS hazard pictograms. Wikipedia]
